A Solitary Man Lyrics

Better the man who stands alone
I'm the man who likes to role
New cities
Better the man who learns to trust
I'm the man who burns and turns to dust
Before these

Better the man who comes to serve
I'm the man whose kingdom is off this serve
Better the man who seeks the truth
For I'm the man whose trials are known to few

A solitary manhole that I am
Waiting for love, to warm my hands
A solitary manhole that I am
Waiting for love, to warm my hands

A solitary manhole that I am
Waiting for love, to warm my hands
A solitary manhole that I am
Waiting for love, to warm my hands

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.
