Y A N A Lyrics

Keep setting fires
Keep drinking water
Breathe while you can
This earth is your garden

You are the same
We are the weakest link
We are born naked
We may see our end before our time

One more stolen living heart in hand

Beating out
Sleeping fast like sand
Help me now before I sleep again
Sing to me, shadow
Tell me what I've done

And it's there for you
Reaching out with aching arms
And it's in me
Calling you home

You are the same
We are the weakest link
We are born naked
We will see our end before our time
This earth is your garden

One more broken living heart in hand
Beating out
Slipping fast like sand
Help me now before I sleep again
Hold me in this life
Sheltered from what might come

And it's there for you
Reaching out with aching arms
And it's in me
Calling you home

Opening outward and filling your eyes
Flowing back in as you're breathing its light

And it's there for you
Reaching out with aching arms
And it's in me
Calling you home

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.

Thanks so much for uploading all the lyrics from their latest! I bought the album on iTunes so don't have the lyrics booklet. :D Appreciated.
