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.
Black & White. Dark & Light. Death & Rebirth. Inward & Outward. Contrasting opposites. Each accentuates or gives rise to the other.
In this song I visualize the Cosmos. A large Star "kindles a light in the dark existence of mere being," to borrow the words of Carl Jung. It's gravitational pull reduces the space between surrounding worlds, "light years brought near."
For a moment it shines brighter than ever. Nothing to fear. Then it explodes in spectacular fashion (goes supernova), "Star death ringing," while its core simultaneously collapses into a black hole, "The colors missing Upon the dark spring" See Wiki Stellar Evolution: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_evolution
If this song is about the birth and death of a star, it could directly tie in with Track 5 on the album: "Drunk in LA." The band said that song portrays a sad actress after her prime. Legrand imagines Edith Piaf. So here the star is actually a person.
