Blitzed Lyrics

I got a chain on my skinny wrist
I got a chain on my wrist
I'm tied down to an evil heart

A bitter pill but I crush it yeah
Bitter pill crush it yeah
I snort it all and I feel ok
Snort it all feel ok

I wonder how long will this wear on
How long will this wear on
I'd rather die than miss my fun
I'd rather die than miss my fun

The beauty of our love is dead
The beauty of our love is dead
The lusty ones won't be tied down
The lusty ones don't tie them down

Our love is being blitzed

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 think this song is about young, foolish and ephemeral love. How real and intense love feels like when youre still really young, when it can be overwhelming for a person. I'm reminded of overpriveliged kids in the suburbs, giving their high-school sweethearts Tiffany bracelets and crushing up their meds to snort them. Maybe thats not what the song is ACTUALLY about, but i've known too many kids like that to think about anything else when i hear it.
