Say You'll Never Leave Lyrics

Hammer nails into my eyes
now I'll never notice
when youre staring at the ground
wishing that you didnt know
what i'm really thinking
you wont even look at me now

say you'll never leave, please
this war inside my mind is killing me

see myself in shredded skin
sew my lips together
so i wont have to say a word
what i never meant to say
i wish i could erase it
make it right again some day

say you'll never leave, please
this war inside my mind is killing me

I'll cut out my throat and I'll eat it raw
and drown in the blood as it fills my lungs

say you'll never leave, please
this war inside my mind is killing me
it’s killing me
it’s killing me

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 definetly one of the most dynamic songs on Sound the Alarm. It has the classic StD blood and guts, but sounds very appropriate for the new album. The hard thing about StD is that every album since Stay What You Are has been strikingly different from the previous. I think that's why Ups and Downs was so comforting, it brought everything together in sort of a reverse genesis [starting with the newest song].
