I Buried The Devil Lyrics

Come on
I'll believe it when I see it
I can feel my body working
I can hear my body healing

Come on
There is no-one there to hurt us
There is no-one who can touch us
The world's a safer place

Don't go out on your own tonight
Don't go out on your own tonight
Don't go out
Don't go out
Don't go out
Don't go out tonight

Come on
There is no-one there to hurt me
There is no-one there to touch me
The world is not a safer place

Don't go out on your own tonight
Don't go out on your own tonight
Don't go out
Don't go out
Don't go out
Don't go out tonight

Don't go out on your own tonight
Don't go out on your own tonight
Don't go out
Don't go out
Don't go out
Don't go out tonight

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.

Someone is trying to prevent someone from getting hurt so telling them its not safe and they have to stay where they are.

one of my favourite Editors-song!

Its dangerous to be alone out there in the world. But together there is no one to fear, together we are strong. Alone you are fragile.

Why the titel "I buried the devil"? With good friend(s) I can compete with every danger, even the devil?
