If Shadows Wrote Diaries Lyrics

Should have killed me right then
Even now, I would never trade places
Why can't everyone live
In a room full of helium balloons

It's easily, the hardest thing
I've done

Try these on for size
In three days and six weeks i'll be alright
Or I'll tear them out
Kiss me now, kiss me now

Too bad we could've been
A great pair
You be flesh I'll be concrete
And we'll bruise as we mate
But please smile, as you'll bleed on your way home

It's easily, the hardest thing
I've done

Try these on for size
In three days and six weeks I'll be alright
Or I'll tear them out
Kiss me now, kiss me now

Try these on for size
In three days and six weeks i'll be alright
Or i'll tear them out
Kiss me now, kiss me now
Kiss me now, kiss me now

It's easily, the hardest thing
I've done
It's easily, the hardest thing
I've done

You'll be concrete I'll be flesh
And we'll smile as we mate

Try these on for size
Kiss me now, kiss me now

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.

To me this song is about a break up. It is saying that it would have been better to die than live with out the person, yet the singer is learning to cope with the loss of his love. That the breakup is and was nasty. I am not sure how to explain it, but this song is very good.
