Hostage Life Are Alive and Well Lyrics

between these circles there’s no shaking of hands/
all my friends in bands can’t stand my friends in bands/
here we go again/
what we’re giving you is no different than it’s ever been/
nothing to sell nor a penny to buy me in and for what you think about us...I’m so sorry/
here’s my apology, sincerely, honestly/
hostage life are fucking alive and well by order of the postmaster general/
I stand by my friends through all their mistakes/
walk in their shoes before I drive my stake/
yeah, sunshine, we’re all hypocrites/
you can’t fucking pick and choose who the fuck you hate for it my jealousy’s going to be what does me in/
I spit on the devil because I’d kill to be as warm as him

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.
