In The Desert Lyrics

We'll fight this cause even if it kills us
The temperature is rising but our lungs will not collapse
Here in the desert there's nothing to run from
Nothing to hide from
So let's rock the Casbah
Take it by the scruff of the neck
And if you've got the time, Baby I've got the money
And I'd give anything to see her smile again
And I'd do anything for one last smile
She had a love like nobody else
Unrivalled beauty, wanted them to love her back
And when they didn't, she shed a tear
A piece of us all died that day
We all died that day

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.

This is one of my favourite songs, I think it's about how you would do anything for someone, once you get to that point there is nothing to stop you from doing anything for them, but I am most probably wrong haha, I just know this song is fucking amazing live!

I have no idea what these lyrics mean but the music itself does everything for me, especially via the climax it so beautifully builds up and carries out. Amazing.

I think that he's in love with a girl who has been hurt too much in the past to be willing to try again with him, even though he knows that he wouldn't be one to hurt her
