Antarctica Lyrics

All I have is strictly forbidden
and all I have is strictly insane
We know what we want
but that's not always good for us
Insanity is not always despair

All I have means nothing to me
And all I give is so much more
When nothing is left
There's nothing to lose
When there's nothing to lose
There is peace of the mind

We all fall into oblivion
And history slowly fades
What's done doesn't matter
What matter's not done
All we have, belongs to no one

All I have means nothing to me
And all I give is so much more
When nothing is left
There's nothing to lose
When there's nothing to lose
There is peace of the mind

All I have means nothing to me
And all I give is so much more
When nothing is left
There's nothing to lose
When there's nothing to lose
There is peace of the mind
When there's nothing to lose
There is peace of the mind

When there's nothing to lose
There is peace of the mind
When there's nothing to lose
There is peace of the mind

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.

I sincerely believes that this song is the answer to the eternal question: "What is the meaning of life?" Every word of this song makes absolute perfect sense. This is life folks. Hooverphonic has written the meaning of life in this song. No other song I know has done that. I love it!!!

I have a typo in my comment. The third word is "believe". I hope that doesn't ruin the punch that my comment packs.
