B Side Ourselves Lyrics

Release the angels
Go on release them
Rose petal squadrons
The bees are swarming
Warming your cold skin

Such a womanly man
Such a boyish girl
Clutching at strings
Of blackened pearls
Warming your cold sting

Didn't they teach you anything at all?
Something's not better than nothing at all
B side ourselves
B side ourselves
B side ourselves

Now you belong
Where we belong
Into the landslide
Clandestine beside the real world

Raw senses bring us beside ourselves
Instincts to guide us through this foggy world
We're beside ourselves
B side ourselves
B side ourselves

B side
B side
B side
B side ourselves
B side ourselves
B side ourselves
B side ourselves

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.
