Flatlined At 3:23am Lyrics

No, dont leave me alone in this life
she just closed her eyes
flatlined, choked and died
please, start breathing again my love come on please survive
shes too far gone to try

stay with me now dont go to sleep
wait for the sunrise just you and me
i want you to know, i never told you this
just, too late, should have told her before, but you never did
you never said
all, in a second, its all slow motion isnt it
standing by her bed

stay with me now dont go to sleep
wait for the sunrise just you and me
i want you to know, i never told you this
i should have let you know
i never let you know
wish i'd let you know

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.

this song obviously has the first meaning of death, of someone dying and leaving their lover without anyone but i think this song can be related to if you just loose love, if that dies "please, start breathing again my love come on please survive shes too far gone to try" = we can get through this, but, the partner has already had enough, its too late to carry on, too much has been said or done on one of the couples part and its too late. "stay with me now dont go to sleep" wake up from whatever it is thats making you want to break up.

In the death sense, this song is just about a guy whos girlfriend has died and hes left in the world alone, she was everything to him, he loved her so much and yet he never told her and so he's full of regret

This is one of my favourite Halo songs, mainly because of the meaning of it and how its slow and its just... nice, I advise anyone who likes Muse or alternative rock to check this band out, the lyrics are amazing and the music is... as well as the lead singers voice... (",)
