The Boy With the Colorful Name Lyrics

what have we done, what have we done
what will we be when the day comes
will we still have it all, will we fall
into piles of trembling bones on the floor

the bird never flies with wings tied behind
and the girl doesn't sing in the dark
twisted and painful she came to me shameful
and we told our secret
afraid of the morning star
how will she live without me now

cover our footsteps in burgundy wine
fight for composure i'll give her mine
will we have the strength for the boy
with the colorful name

the bird never flies with wings tied behind
and the girl doesn't sing in the dark
twisted and painful she came to me shameful
and we told our secret
afraid of the morning star
how will she live without me now
how will she live without me now

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.
