Purple Lights Lyrics

Soulmates in soda shops and bunkers
Blood on their
spurs

All is damp
The creature has a muddy hole
Just finger until you
find a soul
Lick your lips and taste your ash

First dates with shriveled
flesh and zombies
Blood on their knees

All is damp
The creature has a
muddy hole
Just finger until you find a soul
Lick your lips and taste your
ash

Arm your wooden teeth
Split the cherry gown
Pay for purple
malts
With nickel underground
Wives with etched on stars
Haunting country
sides
Rocket's red glare
Searing butterflies

Harbors fill
With bloodied
fur and tea barrels
Probe the scabs all night
Abductees in purple light

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.
