heartbeat Lyrics

Looking back now brings back the worst of
these memories
these pictures act like a perfect witness
to our past woh oh

I never knew just what to say
when these three words become routine
it's the end of you and me

and i can feel your heartbeat racing
through my bones
vibrating through against my own
woh woh woh

i never kept a god damn thing from you
so girl get it right, could you please
i saw the future and it hurt like hell so please
hurt me, i've always got the west coast

you wore short skirts and you cursed me
when you scraped your knees
when these three words become routine
it's the end of you and me

and i can feel your heartbeat racing
through my bones
vibrating through against my own
woh woh woh

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.
