Degenerate Lyrics

[Intro]
Suppressing truth without excuse
Degenerate
Never knowing peace, straying from youth
Degenerate

[Verse 1]
None can stand fractured from the fatal fall
All have turned aside of our own volition
Into death every word, every thought
And intention maligned
Misery and malice lead the way to shed blood

[Chorus]
We are all slaves
Corrupted from within
We are all slaves
Defiant, depraved

Degenerate

[Verse 2]
Worthless, our throats are open graves
Using tongues to deceive
Words blend poison with flattery
Ignorance saturates the lies we speak
Profess wisdom, becoming fools

[Chorus]
We are all slaves
Corrupted from within
We are all slaves
Defiant, depraved
We are all slaves
Without the power
Or will to change
Defiant, depraved

[Bridge]
Suppressing truth without excuse
Degenerate
Never knowing peace, straying from youth
Degenerate

[Outro]
The image has been distorted
All are bent towards rebellion

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.
