Bait and Tackle Lyrics

You tie my veins in a knot
Not gonna be your baby
You sell yourself for love
Lovely blue eyes baby
I know, you’re the slave
To the scent of a gun
Don’t let the bullets hit you
Don’t let the poison drain your blood
I know, our souls are worn out
I know, she’s a liar
I can tell by the way that she moves me
I can tell by the way that she kills me
Pull my gravity
Hold this heavy heart
I eat myself alive
You eat my insides
Grab a fork and a knife and a spoon, and chew
I know, our souls are worn out
I know, she’s a liar
Bury me home
I can’t save your soul

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.
