T-Rexia Nervosa Lyrics

I plucked out all of my plumage, and I can keep nothing down
Peacock with poor body image, and a temple that's sure to be torn to the ground
I'm tired all the time, the lullaby become the dirge
I've put on loose fitting finery for the ultimate purge
She will fast another night sink steadfast sink from sight
You reach for her with all your might, but she sinks so fast for one so light.
I starved my way into this world, and I starved my way through
I starved each day as your girl, Jesus Christ, I was starving you too
This shame has disciplined me, although it is crushing and dumb
I know that I'm no survivor, although I may look just like one
She will fast another night sink steadfast sink from sight
You reach for her with all your might, but she sinks so fast for one so light

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.
