Extra Astronomical Lyrics

Celestial catastrophe
Orbiting machines
Entropy evaporates
Absorbing the obscene

Re-occurring collision glowing
Glowing collisions re-occurring

Approaching systems now visible
Heading for nowhere near home
Approaching phobos now visible
Stresses to systems are known

Extra astronomical
Searches seem to show
Damage to sola winds where the air uncovers
Melting on the star pole snow

Re-occurring collision glowing
Glowing collision re-occurring

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.

i feel that the excess of information stresses people which lends to social conflict that can be as fascinating as chemical experiments, if the adequate attention is given.
