Cetacea Lyrics

into pattern
flowing blood
giving form

in every part
the whole you see

into pattern
flowing blood
giving form

from the moment of commitment
nature conspires to help you
from the moment of commitment
nature conspires to help you
from the moment of commitment
nature conspires to help you

nature conspires to help you

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.

if you listen to this song it's so intense. the bells start in. i begin to drift off. helix patterns, ribbons of genetic code, things begint to take pattern, objects become compounds...then life begins to have meaning. patterns, everywhere. in our behavior, in the way objects move through space and time. the orbital system. history and events, the relationships between people. it all becomes clear.

from the moment of commitment nature conspires to help you

our mind is the only thing that runs on free will. if we can commit to that, nature's pattern can improve. thought can perfect or destroy it.

bye:)

Perhaps this song is the visualisation of a species being perfected over time to suit the sea.
