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.
I think that the meaning of this song is pretty self-explanatory. I think the most general meaning that most people would interpret this song to be about, is war. But I think that "war" could mean various different things. From war between countries, to wars that individuals are battling within themselves. If there was more peace and love in the world and people could come together and discuss issues, our world would not be such a conflicting environment.
Yeah, I agree with the comment above. I think war is a metaphor for any kind of struggle, be it one literally between nations, or on a smaller scale, any kind of personal struggle/pain...
Maybe he's saying that we already have all the answers inside of ourselves, we just need to take either another, or deeper look
inside

this would make a great song to put in George bush's ear every night when he sleeps.. maybe he could learn a thing or two from it :)
I second that.
I can see this song played at the end of a movie while looking at a ravage scene of war and destruction! Kind of eerie in a sense!
not a lot of lyrics is there? lol anyway its a great song, seems a bit sad to me though but nonetheless a good song
Or at the end of a documentary if the world keeps going in this direction. HAHA. Not that i'm a pacifist. Great song though
