Dirge to Earth & Sky Lyrics

As long as you have your feet above ground
The sky as your crown
Coat tails made of breeze
Come with me
Come with me

May the demons bite your toes
The fairies kiss your nose
May you roll in the leaves
Till they become your clothes
You come with me
Come with me

Earth and sky don’t you pass me by
Earth and sky don’t you pass me by
Don’t you grow long, grow long

Come with me
Come with me

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.

This has become my favourite song, I love it so much. It feels quite escapist to me, like holding onto the good things in life? I don't know, just a guess.
