Lies Are The New Truth Lyrics

There are no ideas left, so I just pluck old ones from the air. Weave them from bathdrain hair. I read what you write, and now it belongs to me. So I'm changing it. What do you think about that? I like my punk pastiche. My visuals collage. Detournment is our "new" language. Creation from your passed our passed overs. You didn't drink together when you were alive. Now you're dead and I say you're lovers. I unzipped my pants to expose my bibliography. Your source is showing. You've got Marx on your face. Power to the plagarist because they are the only ones who are telling you the truth.

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.
