Escape Lyrics

World get away from me
I want you far away from me
Confusion's gone
Blackness reigns
There's no more hurt
No more pain
Leave me alone
'Cause I don't want to know
Gonna go in my room
Close the door behind
Alone world I'm your loser
But you were wrong and so was I
So is everything
So is everybody
'Cause there's no point in this
No point in the void you call my soul
Dreams turned into nightmares
Dreams are dreams
Crawl into blackness
Come - scream into my mind

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.

A cry for help unknowing that help is on its way. Standing in the darkness there are two ways to look, turned around facing the darkness the man would never see the light smiling over his shoulder. Had he only taken the time to turn around.
