Ascension Lyrics

Expressions drop through deadly silence.
I'm bruised and broken from a lonely start and now you say you care so much but I know you can't see past yourself.
I remember when we seemed so close but now you've changed and I know how this story ends.
I never wanted your opinion.
I never wanted you fucking help.
Tender words with hidden meanings, awkward silence, hardly breathing.
These days are getting longer and I'm running out of time.

Sometimes I question myslef: is this everything?
All alone at night inside my head, wasting away. Is this all there is?

I've had to much time to think, written songs that I'll never sing, watched a town turn love to hate.
Split my guts just to be away, this is everything for now.

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.
