The Alamo Lyrics

Call out
Blazing light remains
I'd holler out your name
If you heard a distant call

Dark stars
Burn up like your son
I'd wait for you to cut me
Just tell me what you want

Its a love that you lost too early
Its a love that you lost too early
Its a love that you lost too early
Its a love that you lost too early

Please don't go
I'll make it right
Please don't go
I'll make it right
Distant light
Days just keep going by your broken stars
by your broken stars

I look at the sky
And I don't know how
This can't mean a thing
Nothing to do with you or me
Take medicinal highs and it gets me so low
That I can't even think
I came here alive but my skin is so cold

How'd I know that the days are getting lighter
And the colours are fading with this silence
How'd I know that the days are getting lighter
And the colours are fading with this silence
How'd I know that the days are getting lighter
And the colours are fading with this silence
I know it ends when the days are getting lighter
And the colours are fading with this silence

Call out
Blazing light remains
I'd holler out your name
If you heard a distant call

Dark stars
Burn up like your son
I'd wait for you to cut me
Just tell me what you want

Its a love that you lost too early
Its a love that you lost too early
Its a love that you lost too early
Its a love that you lost too early

Please don't go
I'll make it right
Please don't go
I'll make it right
Distant light
Days just keep going by your broken stars
by your broken stars

I look at the sky
And I don't know how
This can't mean a thing
Nothing to do with you or me
Take medicinal highs and it gets me so low
That I can't even think
I came here alive but my skin is so cold

How'd I know that the days are getting lighter
And the colours are fading with this silence
How'd I know that the days are getting lighter
And the colours are fading with this silence
How'd I know that the days are getting lighter
And the colours are fading with this silence
I know it ends when the days are getting lighter
And the colours are fading with this silence

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.
