My Heart Beats On Lyrics

I laid down to rest
And that night I slept
And I dreamt of beauty, a beautiful evil
Your face was imprinted in my mind
A black hole of depression
I tried to find a way to have hope
But it seemed impossible
In a world where knifes are thrown at everyone
I tried to loosen my grip on everything
I wish I could have let go sooner
But I simply couldn’t forget
Especially when daggers stabbed my back every time I tried something else
Then I found….that hope
Love in 3 faces…my father…his son…loving spirit
Now the river of life flows between my deeply rooted feet
A cryptic hand around my neck trying to pull me free
But my faith is too strong for him
I know true love
It dwells deep within me
So my heart
My heart beats on
It beans
On and on and on and on and on

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.
