The Arms Of Automation Lyrics

When a fool begins to explain hes in love
Wheres the sympathy when he feels he should give up
Well I patiently wait for you
Where does truth begin when you know that it hurts
All the time you spent you feel its time to give up
I know you'll never come
My arms will not take hold of you
But instead of giving up I wait
I patiently wait for you in the dark
To fall into my arms
When a fool begins to explain he's in love
Where's the sympathy when he feels he should give up
I know you'll never come
My arms will not take hold of you
But instead of giving up
I waited all my life for this
I wait

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 believe this band isnt big yet. Come on! This is an awesome song, and I think it's pretty self explanitory. And easy to relate to, thats for sure.
