Sit Back Down Lyrics

They try hard to keep in time
They're not you
Sit back down
Sit back down
Take it in
They exist
Keep it slow
Keep it fixed
Sit back down
Sit back down
City streets are synchonized
Human forms
All petrified
So sit back down
Sit back down
Sit back down
Sit back down

Don't look up
Let them sleep
Don't distub
The morbid feet
You're not the one
Don't you dare
Sit back down
Sit back down
Eyes are drained
Streets are pained
Stay below
Keep it slow
Sit back down
Sit back down
Just sit back down
Sit back down

Close your eyes you sleepers on the street
Walking dead
Walking dead

Sit back down, sit back down
Sit back down, sit back down

Walking dead

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.

I just heard this song for the first time and I didn't like it very much. It seems to lack something most of archive's songs have...But it's still uncool for it not to have a single comment... Maybe if it weren't so slow...
