Tonight I Awake Lyrics

we'll travel endless roads of dust,
to find these lives are made to rust,
drive by cemeteries hold your breath,
counting back from ten i breathe again.
tell me beautiful lies, tell me beautiful lies.
highway horizons will take me away,
to fill this void somehow someway,
drive by cemeteries hold your breath,
counting back from ten i breathe again.
tell me beautiful lies, tell me beautiful lies.
one day, i will awake,
one day i won't have to wait,
one day i will awake,
one day i will escape.
lay with me tonight we'll watch the stars burn out, here tonight.
lay with me tonight we'll watch the stars burn out, here tonight.
lay with me tonight we'll watch the stars burn out, here tonight.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
