I Erased Myself to Make You Better, Shall We All Erase Ourselves? Lyrics

You opened your mouth to speak and said it yourself, "I’m not what I used to be - look at my hands, they shake as I stand up but I’ll never stop working for them." I’m saving to save myself by putting all my earnings in your hands in that hope that one day the government will pay for all of the loyalty I gave. Listen, listen, listen to me! We can’t escape what you can erase, but you can’t erase what isn’t there.

A Dream is a Dream is a Dream is a Lie

An Accurate Portrayal

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.
