Light Years Will Burn Lyrics

Light years will burn 'fore I return
I left it all behind with no concern
For things back then can't be again
Forever trapped in time that never bends
She waits for signals I might send
But they don't come so she pretends
I ran away but I'll be back yesterday

No turning back
Once you're lost you never will be found
No gravity
Never get my feet back on the ground

Love and escape do not compute
I see the photograph before you shoot

I'm standing still but still I'm spinning
This journey ends at the beginning
It seals my fate in the great figure eight

No turning back
Once you're lost you never will be found
No gravity
Never get my feet back on the ground
No turning back
Once you're lost you never can be found
No gravity
Never get my feet back on good ground

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.

Great song. Anyone know what the blurred out message after all the beeps at the very end of the track says?

Oddly relate to this song. I was born in 86 and the older I get, the more I value those who lived in that sliver of time and space. A soft sentimental bunch! One of Ozma's best song - it has their signature sound and finally they transcended being Weezer's lil bro. Like most of their song, its about nostalgia and lost love. In this case, the dude runs off somewhere in an implied space opera. Great guitar solo too.
