Harrison Bergeron Lyrics

now i can walk through those, through those fires that burn in the path of my dreams. my soul is, my soul is my savior, my autonomy, you tried to steal it. you had me shut down, but i'm alive since i have found... faith...moves, faith moves the mountains as fear runs into the ocean deep. take me far away from here. i've come to claim my confidence and my will. you've had me down, had me standing in my own way, a blinded coward, but now ill follow my lead. learn to walk beyond those who have walked all, walked all over you. so i have found my voice through perseverance, and left the choice to speak the words that have gone unsaid.

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.

this song is by far the greatest song ever written by snapcase, the lyrics are amazing, the fact that it follows well with the short story is amazing, and over all there is not a single thing that i can find to complain about with this song
