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.

Three Four

You trade in time for the victory smile I'm spinning high like the tin moon on fire Yeah It's been a long ride but I'm still looking for mine Yeah It's been a long time

I spelled my name on your up and down beat I called for rain but they gave us 8th Street Yeah You're on the TV And paid for faking the bleed Yeah It's been a long time [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/d/damnwells/say.html ] Say your time keeps a little fast Say your heart beats blue and black Say your love grows with poison grass Say you won't leave

I'm making frames for the visions you see I took your place where the cannonball sleeps Yeah It couldn't be free but I would've given you cheap Yeah It's been a long time

Say your time keeps a little fast Say your heart beats blue and black Say your love grows with poison grass Say you won't leave

Say your time keeps a little fast Say your heart beats blue and black Say your love grows with poison grass Say you won't leave
