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.

Description by Ben Cooper : "And for some general info: All Is Well is from the point of view of a man (Jonathan Northcoat is the actual character name, if you wanna get detailed) as he's bleeding out in the bedroom. The fuzzy sounds were supposed to be the equivalent of his blurring vision as he's trying to reassure his fiance that he's fine, whom he had run away with. The second part (goodbye, goodbye) is from the point of view of the fiance dealing with the aftermath once he passes. In the end she burns the house down and leaves. I think the rest is pretty easy to pick up from the lyrics."
