The Curtain Lyrics

As he saw his life run away from him

Thousands ran along

Chanting words from a song

"Please me have no regrets"

"Please me have no regrets"

Came from the baby's mouth

We follow the lines going south

"Please me have no regrets"

Came from the,came from the,came from the... baby's mouth!

We follow the line going south!

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.

Can't display the lyrics. Similarly I can't pull a dip from a can I bought because I left it in a vehicle my parents confiscated for unknown reasons.

But I wanted Phish fucks to know this is lydian my favorite mode. The killer guitar line is Lydian.

I guess they sell dip after midnight fuck this week.
