490 Lyrics

I drown in you like quiet rippling seas oblivious to my own crippling disease.

Don’t say you love me or hold me tight.
Don’t give us one last night my deliliah.

I’m the strongest man alive you are my betrayel in my best moments I am the weakest man alive.

And in this moment I see my portrayal this very moment from the glories you contrive.

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.

Well the guys have actually said that it's a reference to the biblical story of Samson and Delilah and how she tempted him to give up his secret. So to me this song really just represents temptation and how it is sometimes very difficult to resist it and how we need God's help to do it
