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.
Yeah, definitely not just instrumental. I think there is the lyric, "You wrote a novel, I did too," something like that. The choral ensemble responds shortly thereafter, "If I wrote a novel, you did too."
Soo... I'm a bit dissapointed that still no one really has got the lyrics figured out. Anyhow, I've tried to make out what they say - some of it is definitely wrong and there's a part that's practically impossible to hear with the corus singing on top of the lead.
You all can sit in a house of fire
Alive until I’m supposed to reach the clouds
And in their silver boat
Tour the ocean where the eagle stand
Flames tiptoes again
Why would the fire else
Be slipping off my hands
Now that it’s time
Sing it out again
Ring the bells in you
Silent clocks to lou
Ring the bells in you
(Suppose the symbol is true)
(Suppose the way out is loose)
Smite in bell, the river will survive
(Suppose the rain falls in columns and terrible ?fools?)
The clock’s too loose
(Suppose we […])
(Suppose we […])
(Suppose the rain bows in columns and parachutes)
Charms in clouds with a parachute parachutes
You wrote a novel
I did it too
Despite of the kings
That we trust
I could have smiled
All of our
‘Cause I wrote a novel
You did it too
And I’m not apollo
From clay lost in you
There are a lot of words in this song, and I really wish I could find the lyrics somewhere.
The first couple minutes mention fire and flames. Then they talk about clouds for a while.
The problem is, what I hear makes no sense grammatically. I often misinterpret words I hear. But I'll just write down what I'm hearing, when I can make it out:
sighs
you all can sit a house a fire
a light [alive?] into was supposed to leave the clouds
and in their silver boat
tour the ocean where the eagles tend [eagle stand?]
ba da da da
ba da
flames tick ters again
while if the fire ends
each [beats? it's?] taken off my hand
now that's it's time
singin' out again
rid the bells in you
la-di-da
la-di-da
la-di-da-da-da-ah
a.)smile the clocks to lou
ring the bells in you
sliding round the rhythms and lie the clouds to lose
charms in clouds with a parachute
b.) [I can barely make anything out in the background singing except "forces" "terrible" and "power of you"]
You wrote a novel
I did too
Despite of the cares that we trust
I could understand
All of it
If I wrote a novel
You did it too
If I loud apollo
if your clay rosted too
ba da da da
ba da x2
Obviously please do not spread this as lyrics because it's just guesswork and most of this doesn't make sense.
