A 2 Minute Lecture On The Finer Points Of Instability Lyrics

No flowers for you until you put the knife down your presence is smiling with icy veins of siezuring these are the lacerations like falling leaves & sour notes of infatuation compiling the sovereign erosion of my naked ears in your tranquillity a coffin for me to decay in a sellable cremation you’re the killer my little star tell me how.

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.

Just wanted to let people know that the lyrics for the sawtooth grin are printed in a tiny font on the actual CD and copy and pasted at least twice without any breaks or punctuation or song titles. I tried to correct spelling and even tried to break it up into stanzas and punctuate it at one point, but that is not only tedious and difficult, but I didn't want to possibly sacrifice the writer's original intent with his lyrics with my assumptions. Any suggestions or corrections you believe need to be made just let me know and I'll fix it.
