as soon as beauty dies (2nd version) Lyrics

Gazing across the room
I'll never forget when I laid my eyes on you.
And although I have to admit,
I wasn't hoping for this much.
I know I don't deserve you.
I hope you don't dig that deep.
Scratching the surface only creates scars.
I hope you don't dig that far.
You gave me so much
To win me over.
Love lies in your touch.
Beauty dies in the fire.
You gave me so much
To win me over.
Love lies in your touch.
Beauty dies in the fire

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.

Is this the second version they recorded? I assumed it was the first because the recording sounds a lot rougher and less polished. I like this version better though. The guitar work is awesome, the guitar riffs remind me of some Alexisonfire tracks, minus the scene ;p
