The Smell Of Yellow And Black Lyrics

Its O.K. - seems so cliche - you open that door - Its O.K. if I think alot about it - Its O.K. they all play with fire - and I turn and you open the door - And it takes more than I've got - and you're breathin' down my neck - when the face is in my face - when you're breathin' down my neck - Its O.K. if I think alot about it - Its O.K. they all play with fire - When the face is in my face - and the moment seems real - with a moment in time - When the face is in my face - and the moment seems real - for a moment in time - burrow child - dig in your soul child - dont ever let it go - cause you can fly - at least on the inside - for a moment in time it can be ours - for a little while

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.
