And the family dies Lyrics

And the family dies
And I remain the same
And the family dies
And I remain the same
And the family dies
And I remain the same
As was two days ago

And the leader dies
And I remain the same
And the patriarch dies
And I remain the same
And the one you call him it dies
And I don’t change any more

I know that you want whets best
For this house and for this pest
And I know that you have
Nothing but good intentions in mind
I don’t think you understand
Just what this plan does to a man
If you did then you’d only know
That I am not the one to stay

And the family lives
And I remain the same
And the family lives
And I remain the same
And the family lives
And I remain the same
As I was two days ago

And the family dies
And I remain the same
And they give you crass looks
Like it’ll be ok
And they know full well
Things have always changed
And they know full well
Things will never be the same

And it’s just the cross we bear
And it’s just the cross we bear
And it’s just the cross we bear
And we proudly bear it
And we proudly bear it

And the family dies
And I remain the same
And the family dies
And I remain the same
And the family dies
And I remain the same
As was two days ago

And the leader dies 
And I remain the same
And the patriarch dies
And I remain the same
And the one you call him it dies
And I don’t change any more

I know that you want whets best
For this house and for this pest
And I know that you have 
Nothing but good intentions in mind
I don’t think you understand
Just what this plan does to a man
If you did then you’d only know 
That I am not the one to stay

And the family lives
And I remain the same
And the family lives 
And I remain the same
And the family lives 
And I remain the same
As I was two days ago

And the family dies
And I remain the same
And they give you crass looks
Like it’ll be ok
And they know full well 
Things have always changed
And they know full well
Things will never be the same

And it’s just the cross we bear
And it’s just the cross we bear
And it’s just the cross we bear
And we proudly bear it
And we proudly bear it

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.
