Tired & Bored Lyrics

The repression machine
Opened up my chest
And dropped quiet insects
Under my alloy vest
Like broken glass
With menestrating parasites
The insulating jerks
Are ready to fight
Fucking paper cuts
Covering my violent lips
With rubber bands
Holding on my fingertips
Like a firing squad shooting in an octagon
With the rifle shells you called to get me high on
Get me high on...
Get me high
Hungry, angry, lonely, tired
Leaving, staying, options required
Hungry, angry, lonely, tired
Leaving, staying, options required
I hang from my barbed-wire grappling hook
Hijacking the heroes to forget the hearts I took
It's my part in the plastic remote control band
Held up with a middle finger kickstand
Stabbing me from the back
Wasted, high, and paranoid on crack
Like a firing squad shooting in an octagon
With the rifle shells you called to get me high on
Get me high on...

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.
