Kids don't fight Lyrics

Going, going into the night light swimming site
knowing, knowing they'd never leave you
Kids don't fight
Listen, they don't know any better
They call these places
They call these places home

Thought I, maybe tonight things will look much brighter with hindsight
Well I thought we were gonna be different
We were gonna be great
Now I'm telling the kids to sit up straight

Going, going into the night light swimming site
knowing, knowing they'd never leave you
Kids don't fight
Listen, they don't know any better

Lemonade!
Lemonade says:I care
We love this one, don't we?
Throw money after it

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.

Cover art for Kids don't fight lyrics by Jonas Bjerre

Like many Mew songs (I'm thinking of "Comforting Sounds" in particular), this seems to be rooted in Jonas's rueful musings about growing up.

This is from the soundtrack to a film I haven't seen, so maybe watching it would shed a little more light on the lyrics.
