Untouchable Lyrics

I can't deny these foolish hands of mine
Have towed me in the dark
A collision course that has hit the rocks
Has now pierced my heart
I'm stricken down by deceptive moves
What's meant is meant to be
Who'd try console a losing side
When that losing side is me

So now I'll go step out of line
The untouchable is a touch too fine
A crazy lust that strips me bare
A tarnished whim that just will not wear

I've witnessed sin that made me swallow deep
And haunt me till I'm dead
A silent voice that only speaks the truth
Is gagged and bound instead

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.
