Spirit Hunting Lyrics

With hacksaw in hand
you demand I set you free
I got you tied to chains of lovin, baby
you got nothin except for me
the only time I ever hurt you
is when I hold you just too tight
you know just how strong my love is
i know how to keep you here tonight
but one thing I need to know now
when you leave,
what do you see?
I want you thinking of my face now girl
up until the very second you leave

I want to know
I want to know
where spirits go
just where they go
a safe place to let her in?
as she seeps out from the skin
a safe place to let him in?
as he peels out from his skin

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.
