Forever Dead Lyrics

I feel my life has been foresaken
And I've been taken by the storm, for way too long
I sit here locked inside a hell that only you and I could live
Another war so far from grace
So wipe that smile off your face
(Stop coming at me, coming at me)

So go now, find yourself
You're selfish, condescending
You and me are now forever (forever)
So go play God in someone else's life
Cause you and me are now forever (forever dead!)

I wear your burden like a stone it drags me down I'm sinking
I pray they're wrong but lie they're alone (so broken)
Coming at me, coming at me, coming at me
(stop coming at me, coming at me)

So go now, find yourself
You're selfish, condescending
You and me are now forever (forever)
So go play God in someone else's life
Cause you and me are now forever (forever dead!)

(John Conolly guitar solo)

So go now, find yourself
You're selfish, condescending
You and me are now forever

So go now, find yourself
You're selfish, condescending
You and me are now forever (forever)
So go play God in someone else's life
YOU AND ME ARE NOW FOREVER! (forever!)

FOREVER DEAD! FOREVER DEAD! (FOREVER!)
FOREVER DEAD! FOREVER DEAD! (FOREVER!)
FOREVER DEAD!
FOREVER!

I sit here locked inside a hell that only you and I could live
Another war so far from grace

So go now, find yourself
You're selfish, condescending
You and me are now forever (forever)

So go now, find yourself 
You're selfish, condescending
You and me are now forever

So go now, find yourself
You're selfish, condescending
You and me are now forever (forever)
So go play God in someone else's life
YOU AND ME ARE NOW FOREVER! (forever!)

FOREVER DEAD! FOREVER DEAD! (FOREVER!)
FOREVER DEAD! FOREVER DEAD! (FOREVER!)
FOREVER DEAD!
FOREVER!

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.
