Progress (Indigo) Lyrics

Your heart is open but your eyes stay closed
Enough to keep actuality away
It's such a passive motion
You cast a careless hand to the air
Give me something to hope for
And the only thing that brings me back is love
And the only thing that brings me back is love
Your mind is open but your mouth stays closed
Enough to keep painful words from falling out
With every ounce of passion I speak 'til my lungs both billow out
I'll give you something to hope for
And the only thing that brings me back is love
Yeah, the only thing that brings me back is love
Yeah, the only thing that brings me back is love
Yeah, the only thing that brings me back is love
And the only thing that brings me back is love
And the only thing that brings me back is...

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.
