Atom Heart Lyrics

I see the radiance of your atom heart
I wash my dirty hands in your liquid fire
I know it's dangerous, but I do it anyway
I need the purity, even if it hurts

I hear the naked truth in your quiet voice
I see my secret thoughts in your metal eyes
I think it's beautiful the way you say goodbye
I need the purity, even if it hurts

I feel the rage inside, but you play your part
I watch your shaking fists, and I feed the fire
I know it's hurting you, but I do it anyway
I need the fury too, even if it hurts

I want the naked truth, in your tired voice
I tell my deepest truths -- I'm mesmerised
I think it's beautiful the way we say goodnight
We need that fury too, even when it hurts

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.
