Aleph, The Lyrics

It's written with your name on it
It's written
It's written with your name on it
It's written
The late love is one we all stand by
Mirror images of lead bullet in your eyes

Reflection in your eyes speaks gentle to me
Our loves eulogy
It was only a game that you wanted to play
I wont be the same

Say goodbye
Say goodbye to all that you hold
I kneel down to kiss you
But you wanted to die in your own arms

Reflection in your eyes speaks gently
Our loves eulogy
It was only a game that you wanted to play
I wont be the same

You were the one to call me hopeless
You were the one to call me dear

Standing side by side lives full of fear
Standing side by side

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 think this song is about a relationship gone wrong, one person loves the other person, but they never really liked them and just toyed with them.("It was only a game that you wanted to play") Thoughts of suicide and fear run through one persons mind as shown with "But you wanted to die in your own arms" and "Standing side by side lives full of fear" This person gets fed up with the other, "Say goodbye Say goodbye to all that you hold," but by the end of the song it seems that the person sticks around, "Standing side by side"

This song is defiantly about a relationship; however, the context of that relationship is not clear to me. But, "the game" is Russian Roulette and somebody loses. The bullet is what the person's name is written on, and "Late love" means love that has passed. With these pieces, I think you can create your own story that suits you.

I think that instead of "lead bullet in your eyes" its "hate burning in your eyes"
