Land of a Thousand Lakes (Demo 1) Lyrics

So I came across a small child on the run
He glanced at me made his fingers into a gun
He said you need God along with spirituality
I turned to him bid him thanks and left kindly
I ranaway so quickly, I had forgot to run
Should've known these lakes, streams, and sun
Would get me thinking about what he was conveying
Turning them into my grey sky now I'm wondering
I guess it was my curiosity of you by my night stand
Tightly weaved between his body and hands
So begging a god to take me just wont help
Then headed to a monastery all I could prove was hell
But I'll be alright traveling this road, can starve a man
But then again, I'm still searching for a home in a not so foreign land
I guess finding that love is just a blanket to me
Just like a baby fighting off sleep and insecurity
Yet, it won't warm through the nights of winter
Or find you covered in claded armor

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.
