A Song About Love Lyrics

This is a song about love. And when we turn our backs we tune it out. Colder and colder we turn it off. If there ever was true love for life, it's gone. Where has it gone? Life burns inside our hearts, but we're losing touch. We're losing ground. Traditions of killing passed on and on. Life burns inside our souls, but we discriminate to show our hate. So easily we detach ourselves from how other people feel... This is a song about hate. Ripping and tearing down, we smash it burn it to the ground. Escalate the greed that fuels our hate. In our struggle for power we generalize, if fear of difference we buy their lies. We don't realize the pain we create. Life burns inside our hearts, but we're losing touch, we're losing ground. Traditions of killing passed on and on. Life burns inside our souls, but we discriminate to show our hate. So easily we detach ourselves from how other people feel...

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.
