Attention Economy Lyrics

Hello, the choice may seem simplistic
Hello, I swear it's not sadistic
So long, full stop, finished, over, done
So long, this time, no help from everyone

Place ain't a mess, only sloppy autonomy
I'm not bored, just attention economy

Hello, six of one, half-dozen, fuck 'em all
Hello, pretty happy, not content at all
Going down with the shit, one hell of a time
Today's empire's tomorrow's borrowed dime

It ain't near, far inside what I'm searching for
I'm not scared, just more scars than I had before

It ain't near, far inside what I'm searching for
I'm not scared, just more scars than I had before
Place ain't a mess, only sloppy autonomy
I'm not bored, just attention economy

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.
