Dear Dhinus Lyrics

Dear Dhinus, did you call?
It was the best surprise of all
Don't need no crossroads or no scroll to sell your soul

Behind the writer of this song
Are a thousand love affairs gone wrong
You can only write when you're as lonely as a stone
(So you let the ones that you love go)

Oh how my heart keeps beating
I know it's just repeating
Feelings that were computed
Long ago while you were shooting high
I'm feeling like a butterfly
Who's gonna pluck my wings before I die?
Who's gonna pluck my wings before I die?

Tell the hangman not to start
And wake the hermit from your heart
Burn the maps that chart your dreams
They're all just make believe

Oh how my heart keeps beating
I know it's just repeating
Feelings that were computed
Long ago while you were shooting high
I'm feeling like a butterfly
Who's gonna pluck my wings before I die?
Who's gonna pluck my wings before I die?

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.
