5 Days and the Mind's Erased Lyrics

I found the footsteps behind her the longest
And ear untrained to the sound of my feet proves that they never were
There waves her freshly cut hair within tempting ear-shot
And I break the damn on the world with my mouth
The only time I ever truly saw her scared
Her hand with a hand I bet she didn't know as well as mine
All over the back of her neck, on that thin skull
Shattered into facing me again with a word
Her name hurled a hundred miles from my lips
Please be the worst thing I can imagine
Please be more than I can handle
Bit my soul into my hands
I'll be tearing them up
I'll be breaking my hands

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.
