The Weight of Love Lyrics

The story still in the works
The players fishing ideas
Walking in the air
The church of Irene

Stands like a warehouse
With love's spirit out in the cold
Out in the cold tonight

The actions disappear
And let the love's spirit in
The fear inside my head
Is just a resistance to
The weight of love

The weight of love
The weight of love
The weight of love
No shadows whispering

The theater with no name
Calls a welcome in
And music fills the cracks
And shadows whispering

The weight of love
The weight of love
The weight of love
The weight of love

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.
