Silent As The Grave Lyrics

tie the knot hang to dry pull the plug kill the light celebrate your demise funeral of a god set to end from the start buying back stolen dreams back up plans fall apart hear the sound drowning out tired of this cover up forced demure fake design make it up on the spot make your own choice you decide coming down from the fence I will be on your side watch the spark fizzle out tear the page turn our backs shed the weight burn the shreds hide the trace moving on to the next way of life clocking out for a while and I may be some time

the last surprise has rung out
a free for all
squaring up for the charge
bring out the knife
cut this deal
no more surprise
we have been surrounded

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.
