Black and Blue Lyrics

Pack up your shit, we're through
Prepare for black and blue
She slams the door, out into the night she flew
Neighbor yells "Shut the fuck up,
well it's late and that's quite enough"
While I scan the streets, and I scream off the balcony for you
Love
Drown myself, it's just as well
Throw my body in the wishing well
Fallin' apart, spellbound, scheming for you
I'll crawl to the corner store
Courage makes me want you more
I'm fixin' my mind but I'm fuckin' it up
For you, for you, it's all for you
It's all for you
It's all for you
Pack up your shit, we're through
Prepare for black and blue
She slams the door, out into the night she flew
Love, love, love

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.
