Lights to the South Lyrics

What if you finally found that all of this was real? The hatred, the history, the lies, the scars, were still healing. Free-form drift and flow in motion (you know this is real). Now is the time to rise from the wreckage. Cause this is my farewell. I know its not the end, but it sure begins with me. This is my farewell. Every single step is an insurgents indemnity. Youve always thrown sticks and stones, now were skin and bones. Brothers and sisters, now is time to take a stand. Calculated crimes, they were planned; its all planned, take a stand with me. And after looking down for so long youll realize that its lonely at the top.

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.
