There's a Beauty In Permanence (or All Rise) Lyrics

One hand 'round the other's wrist. All air exiting my chest. All senses functioning: Heart beats, maintain breathing. As you walk steadily, I have never felt so weak, or so strong, as I do now. Lids close for the last time on a world familiar to their eyes. And, when opened, they will be made new, staring for the first time at you. Earth pauses, and all time stops as the music cues and the ground drops out from me. In this moment as you're drawing near, my destiny is finally clear and it's you. Walk steadily. I have never felt so weak, or so strong, as I do now. She makes herself ready.

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.
