The Mutineer Lyrics

These are words,
a prison curse—I'm sorry
if some hurt

They're thrown with speed, so
please believe I'm sorry
if some hurt

I am sorry if some hurt

There's my face,
and it's the place I live in
It's by the sea

I've eyes of brown,
suns that drown and sink
without a trace

Yeah, they sink without a trace

Hear the band
Yeah, here they stand and wait
for your applause

Could change this room
with these chords—this tune
in my mouth could form a smile

But loose talk and fears fuel
the mutineers, but I'm
too old to care

And all that's left
are words, one breath
I am sorry if some hurt

Yeah, I'm sorry if some hurt

I'm sorry if some hurt
Yeah, I'm sorry if some hurt

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.
