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.

This song is not instrumental. Here is my attempt at the correct lyrics:
It draws you in It pulls your skin It forces you down And spins you around
Out here's the call The ocean floor It floats, it sways It breeds, it decays To nothing
The wave came in to salt my skin, I The wave, it stripped and wore me thin, I slide
It lifts you up It lets you drop It calls your name It gets its ways
By breezy place The coral chain It floats, it sways It breathes, it decays To nothing
The wave came in to salt my skin, I The wave, it stripped and wore me thin, I slide
The wave came in to salt my skin, I The wave, it stripped and wore me thin, I slide
It draws you in It pulls your skin It floats, it sways It breeds, it decays To nothing
