a taste of your own medicine Lyrics

You're about to feel a rush of blood run down your spine
You're about to taste a dose of your own medicine
I'm bending over backwards and I'm cutting it close
I put my life at risk for you
Your love for failure clearly shows
I'm better off to let you go
You only lead the darkest alleys
You're misleading me with your ghost
I felt so afraid when you showed up
With your means to betray
Oh no, I'm tearing down all the memories of your face
Though I never saw you I can recognize your taste of love
This can't be love, you haven't the slightest what that means
Love is patient, with no intentions to deceive

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.

Yeah, that could be it, and how Satan always tastes his own failure because of the beautiful cross, but could also be a disastorous woman.
