My Darling Lyrics

take the money off the table
walk outside your bedroom door
get in your car, start the engine
push the pedal to the floor
down the alley, through the streetlights
press your money to his hand
magic sparks now luring princess?
its hard to understand

all those years you spent alone
all the tears you've always known
all the fights and screams for
through the blackness of your life
turn the tv off tonight
take my hand; don't ask why
there's a place you need to see
you can be anything, my darling
my darling

now its over; magic's fading
how long will it take this time?
your mind is starving; body breaking
but you do it every night
have no friends, you have no family
just don't manufacture love
see the p?, hearts are racing
you need to look above

all those years you spent alone
all the tears you've always known
all the fights and screams for
through the blackness of your life
turn the tv off tonight
take my hand; don't ask why
there's a place you need to see
you can be anything, my darling
anything, my darling

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.
