Our Own Grave Lyrics

My ever waking contempt for our sick way of life steals from me any
Last hope for us as a species
To survive ourselves I watch us breed, I watch us drown in our oily
Seas of greed forever lost...
A time before the machine manufactured ideals pushed onus all day a
Few shall dictate as we fall
Disillusioned I tear away all the bullshit fed to me every day Choking
As I'm smothered in the media
Swarms of pressured thoughts distorted truths are your words for me
Manufactured ideals pushed
On us all a few shall decide as we all fall disillusioned I tear away
All the bullshit fed to me
Everyday our world stands on its last withering legs and I struggle to
Find a reason to care
For your pained screams are echoed in the laughter of those who seal
Our fate... they seal our fate
My ever waking contempt for our sick way of life steals from me any
Last hope for... Survival of us
As a species lost I watch us dig our grave our own fucking grave

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.
