Young Fiction Writer Lyrics

Save face and leave, before she gets mean. You know how to act, you scripted the scene. This film's more a short, a monologue of sorts. Whatever invalidates the mind reading smile. Now ask yourself quietly, (you're a bright breathing funeral) Was it worth all the agony? Your last fairy tale. A string of stealth encounters, making sex under the table. Perfect simple positions like the truth you've learned to bend. Now ask yourself quietly, you get worked over nightly by the brutal reality of your last fairy tale. Young fiction writer, you tried to live inside her. Depending on paper to save you in the end. Now ask yourself quietly feel free to answer honestly. It's OK you're alone now, was it worth one less friend?

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.
