Locked In Lyrics

You're lying through your teeth
It doesn't seem to be that bad
Until a good friends corpse is lying on the floor.
I can't seem to get by when all i'm living on is fake smiles.

We all seem to be on top of our own little worlds,
But that won't last long for most of us. We all tend to be a little too into ourselves,
But that won't last long (that won't last long).

An eternity it seems,
And it's starting to become that bad. It's taking too long,
And i am impatient.
I can't seem to get by when all i'm living on is lost miles.

We all seem to be on top of our own little worlds,
But that won't last long for most of us. We all tend to be a little too into ourselves,
But that won't last long (that won't last long).

Shut your mouth and listen.
There's no time for reminiscing, Because thinking of the past just never changed a thing.

Something's coming over me,
To see between the lines you'd never read.
Something's coming over me,
To read between the signs you'd never see,
And see between the lines you'd never read.

We all fall back, and step in line.

The City Sleeps In Flames

You're lying through your teeth 
It doesn't seem to be that bad 
Until a good friends corpse is lying on the floor. 
I can't seem to get by when all i'm living on is fake smiles.

We all seem to be on top of our own little worlds, 
But that won't last long for most of us. We all tend to be a little too into ourselves, 
But that won't last long (that won't last long).

An eternity it seems, 
And it's starting to become that bad. It's taking too long, 
And i am impatient. 
I can't seem to get by when all i'm living on is lost miles.

We all seem to be on top of our own little worlds, 
But that won't last long for most of us. We all tend to be a little too into ourselves, 
But that won't last long (that won't last long).

Shut your mouth and listen. 
There's no time for reminiscing, Because thinking of the past just never changed a thing.

Something's coming over me, 
To see between the lines you'd never read. 
Something's coming over me, 
To read between the signs you'd never see, 
And see between the lines you'd never read.

We all fall back, and step in line.

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.

i can't beleive this song has been posted for nearly a year and i am the first poster on it. I think it's amazing. Most of it I guess is pretty obvious to what it means, a lot of it's a message to the masses. "to see between the lines you'd never read" i think that means a lot, like you see the truth when you read between the lines but if you never read the lines in the first place, then how could it possibly be the truth? But at the same time, does it even matter?
