Coughing Up Blood Lyrics

hey!
wilted letters in the sun
and i know you've had your share
and i'm bleeding over balconies! (hey! you!)
and i know you know we do (you! hey! you)
i know you know we do (you! hey! you!)
i know you know we do
you always do...you always do

aww!

wilted letters in the sun
wilted letters in the sun
and i'm bleeding over balconies!
i'm bleeding over balconies...
i'm bledding over balconies

as old black men pace down sidewalks
i wander through these city streets to find something
that's just not me
oh god! it's all turned into fashion
what happened to passion?
oh god! it's all turned into fashion
what happened to passion?
oh god..

aww yeah!
wilted letters in the sun
and i'm bleeding over balconies

so did your father hit you when your down?
it tastes like water when you drown..

wilted letters in the sun
in the sun sun sun
the sun sun sun
the sun sun sun
the sun sun sun (wilted letters in the sun!)
wilted letters in the sun
wilted letters in the sun

ahhhhh!
ahhhhh!
ohhhhh ahhh!

as old black men pace down sidewalks
as old black men pace down sidewalks
awwh

wilted letters in the sun
and i'm bleeding over balconies

so did your father hit you when your down?
it tastes like water when you drown..

wilted letters in the sun
in the sun sun sun
the sun sun sun
the sun sun sun
the sun sun sun (wilted letters in the sun!)
wilted letters in the sun
wilted letters in the sun

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.
