Extinction Lyrics

The block is quiet and the tree bends
I walk into our house
Where all the doors are open
You are lost and I'm found
I'm working on nothing
Extinction is dead

I walk the floor
You made the rules
And you've made me a fool
A mind declined you mute my final note.

I walk the floor
You made the rules
And you've made me a fool
A mind declined you mute my final note.

I won't light your candles
And I won't hold your door
Mystics have seen forever
But I want so much more
I'm working on nothing
Extinction is dead

I heard the bad guy is me
I pierce his flesh I'm a mom
Grieving his harrowing breed
I swear he brought me along

I walk the floor
You made the rules
And you've made me a fool
A mind declined you mute my final note.

I walk the floor
You made the rules
And you've made me a fool
A mind declined you mute my final note.

The block is quiet and the tree bends
I walk into our house
Where all the doors are open
You are lost and I'm found
I'm working on nothing
Extinction is dead

I walk the floor
You made the rules
And you've made me a fool
A mind declined you mute my final note.

I walk the floor
You made the rules
And you've made me a fool
A mind declined you mute my final note.

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.
