Ometh Lyrics

I'm falling away
Away from myself
Away from who I used to be
Arid skin cracked and torn, I peel it away
A change for the better to harness the strength and rise more powerful
Now moroe powerful than ever
A decrepit self once animate, now abandoned and left to rot
Nothing to be salvaged, nothing to be saved
Now follow the thrashing thought of your dream to exist
Persue what may never come
Releasing demons and banishing them to the depths of bloody memories and regrets
The outer shell is decomposing, releasing a new upgraded self
Bleeding ink reveals the price of expansion
Push it down, its hideous face below the water
Watch what was become never again
Let nothing stop you for when it lived, it showed no mercy
Now show it no remorse
Cut compassion from your mind
Forget what it means to cherish life
Now following the thrashing thought of your dream to exist
Pursue domination

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 about overcoming an obstacle that happens to be you. Changing yourself not to conform but to better yourself so you can achieve anything.

Fucking amazing song.

I think its about bettering yourself. The old "you" (or the current "you") is holding you back from something, but then you transform and change for the better and completely get rid of the old you that was holding you back.
