An Afterword Lyrics

If you would let me hold you the nights would never be this cold. If morning has its romance and midday has demands, if I could rest my head forever in these fragile hands.

If evening has its moments..

If you can keep a secret from me. Then I can tell you thing that you’d not believe. If I could write a letter and sign it with your blood and send it with the truest of intentions my love, if breathing was this easy, intentions would be lost.

The hold a conversation with a voice that cuts so soft. If breathing was this easy…

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.

Mathew's voice is beautifully angelic. And this song makes me cry. I'm so happy for TGP, they have their name out there, with incredible music that can't be described.
