Nothing Else Matters [*] Lyrics

If the chute doesn't open
If this plan doesn't work
Going down, down, down, down, down
Kinda great to know as I take that step
This is my one last chance

And everything shatters
Everything's falling apart
I'm hanging in tatters
Barely a beat in my heart
And nothing else matters
No

If the man is the sum
Of all that he's done
Then I'm nothing much today
And if it's true what they say
And you are what you eat
Then I'm nothing much today

And everything shatters
Everything's falling apart
I'm hanging in tatters
Barely a beat in my heart
And nothing else matters
No

Nothing else matters
Nothing else
Nothing else matters
No

Going down, down, down
Going down, down, down
Going down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down
Going down, down, down
Going down, down, down

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.
