Sorrow's Army Lyrics

Sorrow's army. Sorrow's army bleeds
Sorrow's army. Sorrow's army bleeds
Sees his chest wide-open, falls to his knees
Sorrow's army. Sorrow's army bends
Sorrow's army. Sorrow's army bends
Sees the darkness & prays for painless end
Drag your bodies homewards. Mend your broken minds
There's another way, still time to say bye bye
Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye
Sorrow's army. Sorrow's army dies
Sorrow's army. Sorrow's army dies
Sees his wife at home & feels his body cry
Mend your broken minds now, sing your empty hymns
Oh it's time to die now, no time to say bye bye.
Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye

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.
