Daunting Friend Lyrics

You're such a daunting friend
You sing to me under your bed
A melody's rotten
All your spiraling hair
I will meet you on the stairs
The angels are speaking
The angels are speaking

So I will lie
in your shadow
out where the oceans are dark
We'll never hunt alone
So long
So long

Out where our eyes are all older
our memories have grown

We'll float around the town,
chasing all that beauty we're after
A mirror repeating
saying you're alright
Sing with all the color of night
Our love's always changing
like angels speaking

So I will lie
in your shadow
out where the oceans are dark
We'll never hunt alone

And rise up,
arise
light of our own
Our armored moon will burn bright
and fold us in her arms

I let you slip away
You let me slip away
forever
When our eyes are all older
our memories stay

I let you slip away
You let me slip away
forever
When our eyes are all older
our memories stay

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.
