The Other Jesus Lyrics

You rise and fall before me I close my eyes
When all these schemes devour me I'll apologize
You send the truth straight by me I fall right in
These sins you've laid before me are seeping in
I saw the other Jesus walk down my street

Sit tight they try to teach us
The twain shall never meet
But I saw the other Jesus
Walk down my street
In dreams I've tried to twist it
But I never bleed
And something way more sinister
Is plain to see
I saw the other Jesus walk down my street

You rise and fall before me I close my eyes
When all these schemes devour me I'll apologize
You send the truth straight by me I fall right in
These sins you've laid before me are seeping in
I saw the other Jesus walk down my street

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.
