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.
Amazing instrumental.
Train of Thought is underrated, in my opinion. Everyone says it's horrible, but with the exception of Endless Sacrifice (didn't like that one), I thought it was great.
stream of consciousness is the style of writing where the story is told as the persons TRAIN OF THOUGHT goes through. there is no true structure to the story and it flows, almost randomly, but it is like thinking.
Yeah it's my favorite instrumental and maybe my fav song from DT. I think the song is a continuation of Vacant, that's why Vacant is so short I think.
The words 'Train of Thought' is just 'Stream of Consciousness' but then in other words. ToT is truly my fav album =D

It's their third best instrumental after the two Overture's, but is it really necessary to post "lyrics" to instrumentals here? ;)
Well, we need something here so we can talk about the song.
The best instrumental song by DT, and the best instrumental ever!!
