Token Lyrics

I'm proud to say I'm part of something based in values but something right has turned cold long ago. Now you purchase symbols of these values that used to mean something. Put it on display screaming, "Do as I say, don't do as I do." Hollywood latches on sucks it dry and sells this back to you. You bought it but you don't fucking own it. You never cared to question motives. Well I'm here to take it back. You never believed in the foundations of this week's new hot topic. Your values are fashion on sale for the new low price of your dignity. Is this what it takes to feel like you belong? Take a look around you're not fooling anyone. Fashion in disguise is still fashion and hypocrites are still a dime a dozen. You're just here to send the message. You're just here to cheapen.

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.

Another Breath are one of the best old school hardcore bands I've had the pleasure of seeing live and when they played this song the place went crazy. We broke a whole hell of a lot of stuff.
