Chemicals Change Lyrics

Father always said
Love's a nice day job
But it won't pay the rent
If love's the truth
Your heart's the consequence

Five days ago
Chemicals changed
Rearranged themselves
In set stubborn ways

Said honey I spend my life
Splitting words like hairs
If I had nerves of steel
I'd never have to care

You asked for a song
And I'm giving you an album
No, no love tonight
This is not the song
You begged me to write

Can I revise a statement
That I may have made
Can I pull up floors
Can I pour on new paint

Can I lay down tonight
And just forget your face
Cause these chemicals have changed
There's nothing left but space

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.
