Evolve: Lyrics

Stay, stay calm. This generation is a nervous one and they kill all they fear, (but) they fear it all, (so) they take the bait. So disappear with me (for) the captain has fell asleep hours ago and they curse his name because he fell asleep in the halls of the famed. Wasting time, as our hands move across the earth with such finesse, oh...is all I fear, but she gives me rest. Stay with me, stay with me or stay afraid, stay afraid, stay afraid. This is the plague we have always begged to see find death. Violence by default is the stage we play. This generation is a nervous one and they fear, they fear, they kill it all, so they take the bait. Stay with me, stay with me, stay with me, stay with me. Stay calm, stay calm, stay calm, stay calm, stay calm, stay calm, stay calm, stay calm, stay calm, stay, stay calm. (For) the body is not what we lack, the body is not what we lack, the body is not what we lack, the body is not what we lack.

And Shot Each Other

And Then, Came Then

Then Came to Kill

Good Night My Lady, and a Forever Farewell

Someday, in the Event That Mankind Actually Figures Out What It Is That This World Revolves Around, Thousands of People Are Going to Be Shocked and Perplexed to Find Out That It Was Not Them. Sometimes This Includes Me.

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.

NO COMMENTS!? Come on guys! This song is amazing!! I'll take a stab at the meaning.. as a people we are violent toward what we fear or don't understand and thus taking the bait of the devil. Our ministers/leaders sometimes are astray from the path if you will and lose sight of the big picture and waste our time. The stay calm part for some reason always reminds me of someone about to die. I dunno why but it does. And the fact that he says the body is not what we lack just makes that image stronger in my mind. The body is just a vessel and is not what we lack....serving god... etc... Josh Scogin is one of the most amazing lyricists and vocalists ive ever heard. Cheers :)
