Pushing Up Daisies Lyrics

Accomplish nothing, as they're longing to be walking like the walking undead, replaying the same day
I know what's gone, and I know what's left when all that you once loved has faded away and all that you longed for your life has passed you by, nothing that I know'd enhance comforting
Will it be worth it?
The time spent on this moment?
COunting down the days that I wish would live forever
Oh my God,
What is going on?
My own eyes have seen a third of my blood
I'll know what's gone.
And I'll know what's left when all that I once loved has faded away
I'll replay the same day again and again over and over until I am dead.
I'll die knowing I never waited.

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.
