The Pure In Heart Lyrics

We're thinking our lives are moving on
We're building tomorrow and beyond
We'll find out our house was built upon
A floodplain unknown to everyone

Fifty-six more years to go
Fifty-six more years to go

You gather some things made out of wood
Plastics and raw materials
You'll find out you're barely scraping by
And falling behind

Fifty-six more years to go
Fifty-six more years to go
What happens if I beg for more?

We're thinking our lives are moving on
We're building tomorrow and beyond
We'll find out our house was built upon
A floodplain unknown...

You'll find out you're barely scraping by
And falling behind

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.
