music for strobe lights. Lyrics

wait. i can't breathe properly. this voice is a harness, this motion's lost gravity, now. moving through ebony, holding back notions just to watch what i say so i'm told, i, can't seem to get to you, moving slow motion just to watch as it all slips away, i'm fiening for energy, holding back closeness just to watch as it all washes away. no, it's not dangerous for me to breathe. waking up is harder than it seems to be. just because. quicker pace, my heart seems to go but it's moving through oceans & up through the treetops & then, it falls to your feet because moving slow motion is much like, well, drowning at sea. weren't you ready? you were already gone, but you are still wide awake. wash away. fade away, washed away, fade awake.

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.
