Down in Flames Lyrics

Lick my wounds and I feel the pain
Watch my future go down the drain
Made my ruin now I'm aimed at you
Bane of the butcher we are through
Love kills
Like the cyanide living in a jagged little pill
Love kills
It's not for faking, it's just for the thrill
Stop I hate it!
Don't stop! I need it!

[Chorus]
And now I will never be the same
And so I will never be the one to blame
But if I go crashing down in flames
Just wave at me
I guarantee it's you I'm taking with me

Vanished truth I believed in you
Gave myself you bled me through
Crimes of youth grow better with age
In a living hell you're my war to wage
Love kills
Like a vendetta left breathing
so my guts will spill
Love kills
It's not for taking, it's just for the thrill
Stop I hate it!
Don't stop! I need it!

[Chorus]

I'm a wasteland
So far away
I miss your bleeding heart
It's my last stand
I'd die to say
I miss your bleeding heart
Devoid of any feeling
Devoid of disagreeing
Devoid of what I'm seeing
Devoid, you left me reeling
I break!
Stop I hate it!
Don't stop! I need it!

[Chorusx2]

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.
