Already Dead Lyrics

Destroy the spirit and the body will follow,
unraveling before you
No pulse, the void of my heart
Warmth and meter cease
I felt the end upon me but
I was already dead
A silence without warning
I was already dead
I writhe amongst the worms,
mmy words are now my spade.
Raising my hands to the sky,
The light forever beyond my reach
I felt the end upon me
I was already dead
A silence without warning
I was already dead
This is my curse
A waking nightmare
The plague of man defies me
I fear the worst
There is nothing inside me

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.

It sounds like it's about decomposition ("I writhe among the worms") or about rising from the dead ("I was already dead"), or human plague ("The plague of man defies me").
