Pink & Sour Lyrics

Along your skin lost my language
black lip and red carnation
safe house safe

Tap shoes break union station marble
wrapped in malpractice
quiet in the sway

oooo-sing to me pink and sour

oooo-drop down drop down

de-sung ribcages shelter
wound river languid
husk of old jet

sweet light tavern in the morning
taxi driver silent
hard long hands

oooo-kill the kids kitchen light

oooo-drop down drop down

safe house dead trying to whisper
a soft vaccination
cotton in the calm

along your side lost my language
on sand and smoke foundation
loose in the sway

oooo-sing to me pink and sour

oooo-kill the kids kitchen 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.

I know! I love it.

I don't think that my lyrics are correct on here, do you have any input? I just got them off of some other site and changed a few things.
