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.
This definitely deserves a comment. Super beautiful, super abrupt ending. It doesn't always end up as we planned, eh? But it's still a great ride (if for 7 minutes)
I agree, this is a beautiful song. To me, it's basically the story of a life. It starts out slow and simple like childhood. It slowly gets more complex, like teens to young adult. Then it builds more interesting with harder guitar riffs and some bass, representing adulthood and responsibility. And in the end, it just suddenly stops. To me this says that no one can predict their death, with the exception of suicide. But even then, it ends suddenly. Beautiful song!
I agree with this interpretation completely, and also think it's worth noting that the CD version of the song ends at exactly the 7 minute mark (7:00). Moby's Christianity and the symbolism of the number 7 suggests that heaven might be just beyond the end of the song.

Are you sure it is supposed to end like that? It sounds like a corrupt MP3.
