And The Band Played On Lyrics

Anywhere but here Anytime but now Anyone but you I don't want to make assumptions but if I have to then I will You never really cared You were never really there What it once meant Still means a lot to me With or without you I still dare to breathe And after the fall Somehow above it all But I still dare to breathe The more things change The more I stay the same As the world unravels I remain ..And the band played on... I remain

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 No one has said anything about this song yet is beyond me! I love this song and I love the message even more... "Dedicated to everyone who has 'moved on' from and 'grown out' of hardcore. Unfortunately this song is not about one person in particular. Theres nothing wrong with growing up but does renouncing your past and belittling what I still hold dear make it easier for you? Good luck with your new life"
