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.
I been looking at lyrics and i have really gotten into the lyrics by this band. Does anyone know more about this band or singer? To me this song seems as if the singer is describing a relationship in which someone ended a relationship to start with someone else because of looks/appearances and they lied about why they were ending the relationship. I love the bit...
"Trade my picture for more skin". Absolutely brilliant.
Someone please tell me anything you know about this band.
Not much I can tell you about them. You probably won't check this again since you asked about 3 years ago but they were a 4 piece band back in 2000/2001 and then went through multiple bass players, came into their own in 2002, broke up in either late 2002 or early 2003, Brad (singer, guitarist) joined another band as a singer but I'm not sure what that band was called. Geoff (guitars) did his own thing, not sure if he joined other bands but he did do some solo work for a while. Giddins (drummer) did nothing musical when the band split. Apparantly now in 2005 they've formed back together and have got some new songs floating around, those of which being "fallacies and enemies", "my cure", "goodbye makes goodnight" and "can't hold still".
Have fun and enjoy them.
