The Magician Lyrics

Beautiful barmaid, I bet you thought your name would be new by today. I can't fault your dreams, but living for the cake and pale couture is immature it seems.
Oh Emma, babe, you break my spirit. They touch my face, but I can't feel it. Poirot, I've gotta case for you to solve: why Emma's hand can shake my renegade resolve...
Your life loses color while my boat takes water. I broke promises, and it broke her.
While on paper it looked so right, in truth I let it eat us alive.
The message kicked me in the chest. It said, "Live your demons to death."

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.
