put the past away Lyrics

never forget each stab
forget the pain
put the past away
i will make new pictures
undraw the shades
put the past away
and i know
we can work it out
red and gold i see
when you're impatient with me
i like betting money
i couldn't pay the cost
to put the past away
who are we right now
as we sleep and pray
to put the past away
there's a new shade of a green
in our time we made
put the past away
and i know
we can work it out
red and gold i see
when you're impatient with me
i like betting money
but couldn't pay the cost
to put the past away
and i know
we can work it out
red and gold i see
when you're impatient with me
i like betting money
but couldn't pay the cost
to put the past away

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.
