Indie Lyrics

Do it on your own
Do it on your own
Be just who you want to be
Get it on in the land of the free
Do it on your own

Everything started
Everything kind of got out of hand
When it was over
Guess who won the battle of the bands

Do it all alone
Do it all alone
Be just who you want to be
Get it off in the land of the free
Do it all alone

Everything started
Everything kind of got out of hand
When it was over
Guess who won the battle of the bands

One if I (?)
Two if I see
Hey, look at me
I'm an indie
I'm an indie

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.

As far as song meanings go, it's an anthem to being indie by being yourself. Too bad so many people (a lot of hipsters) have forgotten what being indie means.
