Desperate Reflections Lyrics

I have become a predator. My prey awaits me in the reflection of a mirror. When will this curse be lifted? When will this spell be broken? I must seek redemption from this prison cell. But only i can remove these iron bars, as only i have placed them. These chains around around my limbs bind me from only the truth that I refuse to know. Oh, how it stings, but still i test it. I will flee when the pain becomes unbearable. We're just not there yet. This agony is insufficient. Its not enough I've lost it all. I've been reduced to things I swore I'd never do. I have become a predator. My prey awaits me in the reflection of a mirror. When will this curse be lifted? When will this spell be broken? I must seek redemption from this prison cell. The walls are closing in. Dear God, set me free. Oh, how it stings, but still I wait. I will flee when the pain becomes unbearable. Take a hammer to these chains because I never will. Remove this poison from my veins. I beg you.

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.
