Signed D. C. Lyrics

Sometimes I feel so lonely
My comedown I'm scared to face
I've pierced my skin again, Lord
No one cares
For me

My soul belongs to the dealer
He keeps my mind as well
I play the part of the leecher
No one cares
For me, cares for me

Look out Joe, I'm fallin'
I can't unfold my arms
I've got one foot in the graveyard
No one cares
For me, cares for me

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.

“Sometimes I feel so lonely.” Shooting up is a personal thing. If there are two people and only enough dope for one, it is rare that it is shared and they both stay sick.

“My comedown I'm scared to face” The comedown is the sickness that envelops the body as the painkiller wears off. It is a greater pain than if they had not used the drug in the first place.

“I've pierced my skin again, lord” Stuck in a needle to put the substance directly into the vain for a greater rush.

“No one cares For me” The Junkie chooses drugs over people.

“My soul belongs to the dealer” The junkie needs a fix, plain and simple

“He keeps my mind as well” No matter how spaced out the addict gets they have to keep in mind the next place they will meet the dealer and what they will need to get well.

“I play the part of the lecher” When an addict has tons of resources and a secure pharmaceutical supply maybe they can get dope when they want it. But DC in a band starting out would have had to hook users up to get a taste. That is they would act as brokers and get a piece off each side of the transaction to get well. They would have to leach off other users addictions, just like users do to them.

“No one cares For me, cares for me”

“Look out Joe, I'm fallin'”

He did not get a fix in time. It is like falling into a deep hole of pain. Cold turkey, or weak turkey if that last hit was to not strong enough.

“I can't unfold my arms” He is in extreme pain, fetal position, nothing he can do until help arrives.

“I've got one foot in the graveyard” Contrary to popular belief relatively few people actually die from Heroin overdoses as can be seen by DC living another forty years, but that is the way to end an anti-drug song.

“No one cares For me, cares for me”
