Death of a Dream Lyrics

I thought I'd learned my lesson
I thought i had it all
I never thought I had find myself with my back against the wall

I'm waiting in a corner
For a chance to make my move
To come as far as me
With still so much left to prove

Death of a dream
Death of a dream
How much do I have to see
Before I believe?

Before I believe?

I've got a ways to travel
Before I mellow out
I never thought I had find myself doing the thing I'm doing now

A blanket for Patricia
A straight bullet for me
We all know she is beautiful
But what does it really mean?

Death of a dream
Death of a dream
How much do I have to see
Before I believe?

Death of a dream
Oh, death of a dream
How much do I have to see
Before I believe?

Before I believe?
Before I believe?

Death of a dream...

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.
