Q&A

I was able to begin again Lyrics

Where am I?
I'm in my room
I'm not in hell
I have no chain
Perhaps nothing happened after all
Perhaps it did
But I'm alive
I've got a chance to change
And I will not be
The man I was

I'll begin again,
I'll build my life
I'll live to know
That I fulfilled my life
I'll begin today
Throw away the past
The future that I'll build
Will be something that will last
I'll take the time
I have left to live
And I will give it all
That I have left to give
I will live my days
For my fellow men
I will live in praise
For that moment when

I was able to begin again
I was able to begin again
(for that moment when)
I was able to begin again
(for that moment when)
I was able to begin again
(for that moment when)
I was able to begin again

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.
