We Invent You Lyrics

save your grace (save your grace)
i'm going soon (i'm going soon)
not now

i'm on the surface now
nothing will be the same
concentrate on this phrase (concentrate)
"beyond this world i live"
say it to yourself now
ignore the disclaimer (concentrate)
collect your belongings
follow me in reverse (concentrate)

save your grace (save your grace)
i'm inventing you (i'm inventing you)
save your grace (save your grace)
i'm going soon (i'm coming to)

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.

i've taken these lyrics from a version i found somewhere on the web years ago (searching for it it doesn't seem to exist anymore), but i've also made a couple of changes, which may or may not be correct.

it's hard to pick a favourite from leaves turn inside you, let alone an overall favourite unwound song, but this comes pretty close... the lyrics however are among my favourite from any song by any band.
