Dawn Lyrics

This one, as far as I know
is their only non-lp song on a soundtrack
This is from the Escape From LA soundtrack

My angel my reluctant whore
Decided you can take no more
So let's fuck until we fall asleep
Please don't wake me when you leave

Just kiss me before you go
Kiss me before you go
Kiss me before you go
Promise to kiss me before you go

Funeral but nobody's died
Dressed in black and black inside
In the morning you'll be gone
The stranger that I'll never know

So please kiss me before you go
Kiss me before you go
Kiss me before you go
Promise to kiss me before you go

It's too late now too fall asleep
So just lie here and watch you breathe
In the morning you'll ne gone
Like everything I've ever loved

So just kiss me before you go
Kiss me before you go
Kiss me before you go
Promise to kiss me before you go

Before you go
Before you go

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.

How could you NOT comment on one of the best Stabbing Westward songs ever?

I love this song, I think it's completely brilliant, and it's either about a hooker, or that the singer of the song is a sex-aholic.
