Chasing My Tail Lyrics

Steal my heart in the summer
Thoughts and visions from another time cloud my mind
Thinking I was not meant to live this long
Thanking an absentee god that I
Did not take that accidental fatal fall
Distractions as lifeblood
Stranded drunk on a humid night
Pushing ply
Burning sky. Making peace with vice
Constantly increasing the pressure in my life
Aim and ambition, you've come at age
The money must be made, the bills must be paid
I live hand to mouth and simplify
The things I can't afford to lose have multiplied
Friends have scattered
I miss them all so much. I'll see you at weddings and funerals
We'll catch up and we'll wish each other well
Only time will tell, I wish you well

Scrape and crawl to gain position
Chasing my tail in the land of competition

Scrape
Crawl
Scrape
Crawl
Scrape
Crawl
Scrape
Crawl
Scrape
Crawl
Scrape
Crawl

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.
