Send Your Soldiers To Do Your Killing Lyrics

eyes sleep in wondering naked in the woods.
i won't give in to your fucking lies.
eyes glued shut don't let them infect the ones.
love soon they'll too hunt you down.
please lie and tell me it's over.
you got to be fucking kidding me i¹m not fighting your war.
these are not your eyes to use.
these are not your arms to rape.
these are not your lies to spread.
you fucking coward president send your soldiers to do your killing

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 seems like it has a well meaning....But thats about it. Lyrically it sounds like something an angry 12 year old wrote, just substitute president for mommy...Im disappointed, I really like Deset city..Oh well you cant win em' all.
