50,000 Kilowatts Lyrics

When you were young not long ago
50,000 watts came tumbling
Running down
Running down
Us against the world

Sealed with a rag in a bottle it set
You're the lighter in my pocket
Running down
Running down
Us against the world

GET OVER YOURSELF
AND UNDER THE WEIGHT
OF THIS BROKEN HEART
IF YOU'RE BORN TO BE HUNG
YOU CAN NEVER DROWN

This Molotov burning every raft
Turning corset blue with hunger
Running down
Running down
Us against the world

GET OVER YOURSELF
AND UNDER THE WEIGHT
OF THIS BROKEN HEART
IF YOU'RE BORN TO BE HUNG
YOU CAN NEVER DROWN

I should have never given up
Cuz blood blood blood
Is thicker than the water that we tread

Taking
All the
Bridges that I burnt
And buildign a boat to sail away on

GET OVER YOURSELF
AND UNDER THE WEIGHT
OF THIS BROKEN HEART
IF YOU'RE BORN TO BE HUNG
YOU CAN NEVER DROWN

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.
