The Stage Is Set Lyrics

A scattered thought,
for one hot moment it seemed real.
The light in my eyes sparked.
Acted on everything we swore we wouldn't.
We acted on everything we swore we wouldn't.
The staggering audience of one awaited the final decision.
Ideas that make you want to burn every memory.
Acted on everything we always we wouldn't.
We acted on everything we swore we wouldn't.
While the ghosts of the past can't catch me,
they still make us run like hell.
Like hell.
Synapses fire.
While all signs point to forever,
you have to sometimes step off to get back on.
Synapses fire,
blood rushes.
Destination unknown.

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 band is amazing. i hope they go far.

there's an explination to the song included on the cd:

-Time and time again, we all fall victim to the way we react to things. Humans have the tendancy to react with an impulse rather than rational thought.
