Sick on Substance Lyrics

start to think
how i've been drunk
(it's terrible)

start to win
then i pass out
(it's black again)

life repeats
(back and forth)
start to think
how i've been drunk

let's all sip the red
i become the fly
i become the spider
stop consuming and start being consumed

did it hurt?
(yes it hurt)
did it hurt?
(yes it hurt)
did it hurt
(i told you)

oh god did it hurt.
bad

this liver's breaking down
(tell me it again)
you're passing judgment now
(well, my friend)
you're not around

a penny for your thoughts.
what's with all the questions, interrogations?
please leave me alone.

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.
