Shiva Descending Lyrics

Shiva is coming to destroy our planet
Shiva is coming to level towns
Shiva is coming and our death is beckoning
Shiva is turning us upside down
Shiva is coming to destroy the planet
Shiva is coming to make her rounds
Shiva is coming and the sound is deafening
Shiva is coming and this is how it sounds

Shiva is coming to destroy our planet
Shiva is coming to level towns
Shiva is coming and our death is beckoning
Shiva is turning us upside down
Shiva is coming to destroy the planet
Shiva is coming to make her rounds
Shiva is coming and the sound is deafening
Shiva is coming and
this
is
how
it
sounds

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.

This is about a book of the same name. Shiva is a comet on it's way to destroy Earth, but the public is told this a year in advance. This results in widespread panic, not unlike the state of the world now.

This riff was sort of inspired by "Caveman Rejoice" by The Bags.
