Suffering in Reverse Lyrics

There's no reasoning with the thin-skinned masochist. Your vanishing act may prove an escape, so why dig your teeth so deep and play the gun-toting catalyst to the quick return of my dormant insecurities? Try to fly a needle of a scream to your invisible ears. Let your tongue taste my salt. Tether my pain to your fault. Under the heaviest skies, the stars pushing me down, this celestial anvil I wear like a crown. This stands as a paragon of my fallible intuition. Left so self-conscious like those I deemed so confident. Left me so frail like those I deemed so strong before you. All the longing and all the disgust and all the while head held high. Clockwise scowl from the giver of grins buckles his knees like an explosion, turned inside out suffering in reverse.

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.
