Faultline Lyrics

Something deep inside, far from reality
We pretend it never crossed our mind
we feel but never sense
Building up a strong defense
Some say it's our destiny, Lord...
We're living on the faultline
Get out of here
Cry the prophets of our time
Fear the signs
Save those you love and all your children
You life depends on castles in the sand
Don't look back there is no promised land
We don't want to hear that this could be the day
So much for science fiction
as you always say
But soon the day will come
It's only just begun
For the people on the faultline
it's no use to pray
Why living in danger
We're living on the faultline
Get out of here
Cry the prophets of our time
Fear the signs
Save those you love and all your children
You life depends on castles in the sand
Don't look back there is no promised land
We don't want to hear that this could be the day
So much for science fiction
as you always say
But soon the day will come
It's only just begun
For the people on the faultline
it's no use to pray
Why living in danger
Why living in danger, danger

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.
