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.
Even though this song has few lyrics I think it is about living for the moment.
I'm pretty sure the lyrics are:
Can't ask for more so we overfill
We take apart everything we build
Had it right here, now it's gone
On and on . . . .
Break
That rhymes, and it has a live to the fullest before you burn out feel to it.
Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
It sounds like a lucky someone or something destroying it's self-produced success.
Not really sure though.
these lyrics aren't right. the first line should read.
can't ask for more, should I hope for fewer.
Great song.

The original lyrics here are correct. Or at least, they are what the liner notes have.

..if people would just buy physical cds with the artwork they would know these things
