Reimagined Lyrics

When I found the point of life
It came creeping towards me
In the shape of eyes

It was all this reimagined
It was a different kind of speech
It was repetition
It was what you wanted to be

When I saw the shape of sound
Everything came spiraling

It was all this reimagined
It was a different kind of speech
It was repetition
It was what you wanted to be

All comfort
Escapes me

Breathe...
Breathe
Breathe in...
Breathe in
Once you found the breath you'd lost
Breathe again

It was all this reimagined
It was a different kind of speech
It was repetition
And I am exactly what you imagined me to be

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 see this song as someone realizing the meaning of life and portraying it in its form of communication, the "it was a different kind of speech" i tend to read this in a lovecraftian way, as he learned a way to speak of things that transcends his knowledge, therefore only adressing something so great just by "different kind of speech" like his mind couldnt conceptualize all that he discovered and by discovering that he also began to see other things, such as the shape of sound (another link to communication) and he express all he learned through the phrase "breathe and breathe in, once you find the breath you lost, breathe again" meaning only once you figure out what takes your peace from you, relax and focus on other things in your life
