Going Under Lyrics

Trepidation fills my heart Lost in fleeting shadows of thought I'm tearing down my stable foundation So I can give to you... And as I succumb I feel the icy touch Of my body going numb Searching for that precious drive The strength to carry on inside This war Iíve waged against myself For so long... Do I have the courage to persevere? Can I turn the tide of this mounting fear? Vivisect my consciousness and lay me bare Stagnation fills my mind No desire; feeling so confined Iím burning down my own creation So I can give to you... And as I succumb I feel the icy touch Of my body going numb Prepare to wash away my demons of self-doubting Welcome the dreams that end the pain, radiating so violently Iím stripped of all my guards, open to inescapable harm Of truth, in my own eyes I canít wash away I canít wash away... no

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.
