Miscellanea Lyrics

I set the mood that tingles in you
You’ve got the womb I love to intrude.
Well disguise the blushing bride
Apple of my eye.
Inviting virus you amuse, so make your move.

Running faster
You’re on your own

Clue by clue, odds are aiming at you
Can you take the tune when your fate is in bloom?
Sleight of hand has made a mess,
Letters laid to rest.
Screaming sirens sing the blues,
We play to lose.

Running faster
You’re on your own
Chasing the dragon

We made our saving grace Christ to sell.
When there’s hell to pay, who gets the bell?
Now you’re in limbo, searching for a loophole.
But you gave up the ghost long ago.
You gave up the ghost long ago.

Running faster
You’re on your own
Chasing the dragon

Shadows in sheep’s clothes
Lead us to the gallows
But you gave up the ghost long ago.
(I’d rather sink than swim)
You gave up the ghost long ago.
(I’d rather sink than swim)
Gave up the ghost long ago.

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.

I'm surprised no one has commented on this song yet. It's hauntingly beautiful and discordant but in a good way.

The meaning is left up to anyone's interpretation, I'm sure 10 different people will have 10 different ideas of the meaning. Personally I hear this and think he is talking about how with age one becomes somewhat jaded with life's experiences. We are always running, always searching for that next thing to re-inspire the hope and awe that we had in our younger years. But we ultimately know its a losing battle as we have all compromised the ideals of our youth in the reality of a harsh world. Nothing seems to fill the void so we settle for less than what we want.
