An Artist's Song Lyrics

You walked through this horrid life
But you got to sing before you closed your eyes
And you whisper your secret in the microphone
As heard from the ocean all the way to my home

A fearful song
Played by trumpets for my heart
Oo oo oo oo
I have a fear of darkness

So sing your hymn of faith
Cause I have none
Oo oo oo oo
Your song is my fortress

You gave me the strength
To carry my weak body
From the shore to the boat

And kindly returned me toward the sea
When my bones become soft
I’ll keep the secret you gave me

A fearful song
Played by trumpets for my heart
Oo oo oo oo
I have a fear of darkness

So sing your hymn of faith
Cause I have none
Oo oo oo oo
Your song is my fortress

A fearful song
It calls and calls heart
Oo oo oo oo
I sadder love’s what I offer

So sing out your hymn of faith
Cause I have none
Oo oo oo oo
Your song is my armor

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.
