Night Lyrics

Night falls. I sweet talk and lie. I create a life to hide. I drain and find pretty eyes beside the reason I'm alive. I am nothing holy, only lead filled with holes. I am not an example to the other side. I now realize why I am alive. so I take this knife and ruin everything. Running for my life so I can spell relief. Everything built up inside is now blood on my hands. I am your earthly breath, I am your bleeding dream. I am the whole of you. I am not what i seem. I know I can't give up so many things. Such as you and tonight. Tonight I fail. tonight I lie. tonight is not the night I'd want to spend with you.

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.

One of my two favorite songs on the first album, however I don't quite understand the lines "I am not an example to the other side. I now realize why I am alive: So I take this knife and ruin everything." Doesn't seem to be a deep meaning to this song, pretty much face value to me, but that line doesn't follow for me
