A Pale New Costume Lyrics

Make a move, and so it has begun
I'm waiting here for you, for every child you preyed upon
But how could we have known, behind the cross you wear...
Lies something more?

I am what you created - the boy that's still alive
And I am taking back everything and everyone tonight

Delivered us from evil, but every day you wanted more and more
Forsaking God to lead us into a place where we did not belong

I am what you created - the boy that's still alive
And I am taking back everything and everyone tonight

Is this a pale new costume?
Am I the one that let you down?

I am what you created - the boy that's still alive
And I am taking back everything and everyone tonight

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.
