Sewn And Silent Lyrics

I'm touching you and tearing back
And dreaming of your life
I wanted to be hurting
Shallow eyes

Not to mention I'm falling, dreaming
What is wrong with silencing my thoughts?
You were there,
And you weren't designed for what they're selling

Slow down, take time, let it heal
Hide your face from mine

I'd follow you entwined
My bleeding eyes are sewn blind
Fade away, if you reach this in two minds
Not to mention I'm dreaming, falling short
Sell me away that this is real
Saving me, settle down, and I will fall upon thee
In this happiness I'm so damn lonely

Slow down, take time, let it heal
Hide your face from mine
Slow down, take time, let it heal
Hide your face from mine

It's too late to find, body and mind,
Another reason holds you there,
Spit it out, cause I feel this love has gone astray
Darling you'll have to promise me that you won't turn
around
Just as well I'm burning down
You take me away.

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.

A close friend of mine (almost girlfriend) sent this to me once attempting to explain her hesitation over "us". So for me it means exactly what it says. Uncertain love.

I love this song. The guitar after the second chorus sounds like it's crying.. such emotion.

You take me away~~

I think its about uncertain love also, but more the fact that they're in the 'comfortable' stage. Comfortable isn't really that comfortable anymore.
