Build Lyrics

I'd like to
But I can't
Make another
Same stance
Work hard
No shame
No weapons
Don't blame
And I feel
Your face
Like a brother
No worries
Hurried time
Swallows whole
I got a wrecked voice
Gotta show

We think
We heal
What we find
We steal
I need direction
Am I impatient
Course I'm
Do we think

Do we think
I'm ashamed
I'm ashamed
I'm ashamed

Can't stop the talk
Can't look after this
Braid of life intertwines
I catch the wave and then an end
Waiting for my eye
A crazy man laughing
Many think it don't hurt
Many men don't think

We see
We heal
What we find
We steal
I need direction
Am I impatient
Course I'm
Do we think

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.

it's from The Basement Tapes back from like '96 or so, I'm not sure if the lyrics are 100% correct or not though, this is just what I interpreted

Great, classic CheVelle song. Pretty accurate except he says " Many think a Gentleman" not " Many think it don't hurt"
