Eleven Lyrics

I run my calm on fumes
I run my calm on fumes
I've let you have your way around
But I'm warning you
I'm warning you
You push me just that one more time
And I'm done with you
Oh I'm done with you
Down to the bone
I go with the wild
You're down to the bone
I go with the wild
Eleven
Eleven
I run my calm on fumes
I run my calm on fumes

I've made my peace with cut and bruise
A long time ago
Used to be so small
But now I've listened to your last excuse
See I'm stronger now
So much stronger now
All muscle and bone
I go with the wild
All muscle and bone
I go with the wild
Eleven
Eleven
Eleven
I go with the wild
You're down to the bone
Eleven
I go with the wild
You're down to the bone

Eleven
Down to the bone
Eleven
Muscle and bone
Eleven
I go with the wild...
Eleven
Down to the bone
Eleven
I go with the wild

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.

Cover art for Eleven lyrics by Pain of Salvation

This might be a bit of a stretch but could the title be referring to the eleven people Daniel writes about in the booklet on Remedy Lane for Second Love?

"We are eleven and she is the love of my life But one week from now she will turn her back on me Four years from now she will give me hope, then sleep with my best friend Five years from now it is the two of us but by then there is nothing left of this aching love and this soaring love. But I don't know that now Because we are eleven and she is the love of my life."

@PublicFailureNumberOne My wrong, I meant eleven as in age, not people. Also referring to the line "I've made my peace with cut and bruise a long time ago, used to be so small"
