Are You Behind The Shining Star? Lyrics

Are you behind the shining star?
Am I as hopeless as you are?
Well I am sleepless in my bed at night
You promised that you wouldn't fight, staying where we are

Busted, paraded, starved the band
You know I am not that kind of man
But you were better when you couldn't lie
Apparently we are out of time
I've had all that I could stand

I can't hold on
I'm falling, yeah I'm falling

Are you behind the blinding lights?
Strung out and stranded every night?
Well there were places I couldn't find
And pieces that were out of line
So just tell me I'm alright

I can't hold on
I'm falling, yeah I'm falling
I can't hold on
I'm falling, yeah I'm falling now

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.
