Velvet Elvis Lyrics

I'm changing everyday
Into someone else
Trying to get away
From my pain

You fucked up
You blamed me
You lied
PAIN
From bringing me down all the time
PAIN
Just 'cuz it breaks me sometimes
Say what you want 'cuz it won't make a difference

I am replacing
Indignity
Defacing
Simplicity
I kinda like the way you beat me
And bruise me
The way you abuse me

I'm failing everyday
Reaching out for help
Trying to get away
From my pain

You fucked up
You blamed me
You lied
PAIN
From bringing me down all the time
PAIN
Just 'cuz it breaks me sometimes
Say what you want 'cuz it wont make a difference

I am replacing
Indignity
Defacing
Simplicity
I kinda like the way you beat me
And bruise me
Abuse me
It's your turn

I am replacing
Indignity
Defacing
Simplicity
I kinda like the way you beat me
And bruise me
The way you abuse me
I feel betrayed by the sole disaster
I'm not going down alone again
It's all right
I'll recover
Now you'll never see my face again

I am replacing
Indignity
Defacing
Simplicity
I kinda like the way you beat me
And bruise me
Abuse me
It's your turn

I am replacing
Indignity
Defacing
Simplicity
I kinda like the way you beat me
And bruise me
The way you abuse me

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 song is the hardest of any other dry cell songs. they sound like mixing flaw, linkin park, & adema. i think this song is about a fucked up abusive relationship that the victim is harving problems leaving because in some fucked up way he (or she) enjoys the pain

"I feel betrayed by the sole disaster"

Should be:

"I feel betrayed by this whole disaster"

Sole disaster doesn't make any sense.
