Untitled Lyrics

Tables turn stale, girls go pale
Standstills thrill you
Tables turn stale, girls go pale
Shot through with nonbelievers

I couldn't find the words and then I found the words
I couldn't find the words and then I found the words
I couldn't find the words and then I found the words
I couldn't find the words and then I found the words

Never mind the facts
Recording record time
The proper blessings still hold water here
Plus there's no surprise
I've seen it in your eyes
I never thought your guess would be as good as mine
I never thought your guess would be as good as mine
I never thought your guess would be as good as mine

I couldn't find the words and then I found the words
I couldn't find the words and then I found the words
I couldn't find the words and then I found the words I couldn't find
I couldn't find the words and then I found the words

How long
Before something which was once there is gone

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.
