I Await Lyrics

i await for you to come and save me
but there was nothing there at all
time deflates what breathing bodies make
there was nothing ever there at all

i await for you to come and save me
but there was nothing there at all
time deflates what breathing bodies make
there was nothing ever there at all

i wash you away again
from where we are, from where we've been
ring my eyes of memories, of centuries,
of sedatives we've lived
i wait and wait and wait

i await for you to come and save me
but there was nothing there at all
time deflates what breathing bodies make
there was nothing ever there at all

distance brings the shock waves
and the crystal crumbs of tongues we've made
you may betray, the past decays
then how can you save the world's dismay?
i wait and wait and wait

i await for you to come and save me
but there was nothing there at all
time deflates what breathing bodies make
there was nothing ever there at all

i await for you to come and save me
but there was nothing there at all
time deflates what breathing bodies make
there was nothing ever there at all

i await for you to come and save me
but there was nothing there at all
time deflates what breathing bodies make
there was nothing ever there at all

i await for you to come and save me
but there was nothing there at all
time deflates what breathing bodies make
there was nothing ever there at all

i wash you away again
from where we are, from where we've been
ring my eyes of memories, of centuries,
of sedatives we've lived
i wait and wait and wait

i await for you to come and save me
but there was nothing there at all
time deflates what breathing bodies make
there was nothing ever there at all

distance brings the shock waves
and the crystal crumbs of tongues we've made
you may betray, the past decays
then how can you save the world's dismay?
i wait and wait and wait

i await for you to come and save me
but there was nothing there at all
time deflates what breathing bodies make
there was nothing ever there at all

i await for you to come and save me
but there was nothing there at all
time deflates what breathing bodies make
there was nothing ever there at all

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.
