Dark Shades of Blue Lyrics

So here we go
Here it comes again
The present time time, it's so mysterious
I'm facing south
From the northern hemisphere
The southern cross
For now has disappeared

I place it inside my brain
And shield it with everything
I see it come into you
You paint dark shades of blue

Here I go
Just me and my old mind
At times removed
Upcoming up inside
What present sends
Is so mysterious
It's mine to fight
Come spirit come defend

I place it inside my brain
And shield it with everything
I see it come into you
You paint dark shades of blue

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.
