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.

Thirteen is the traditional number of members in a coven. So it is about a coven gathering to worship something like satan (morning star) or "the old ones" (EW lyrics are influenced by old horror stories written by H.P. Lovecraft or similar). Pan is a greek satyr-like pagan god who watches over shepherds and their flocks. Christianity has associated this "horned god" with satan, attempting to suppress its worship. This might have some links to the old horror stories too (which explains how these stoners know about it). Great song!

Im high right now and this song does feel like Dementia. The way the vocals are done are entrancing. Great way to trip out.
