Flatline Lyrics

i don't care what you think about me...stuck in flatline but i'm still
breathin' thinkin' about my options' time to make my decision 'cause it's so easy
makin' it difficult to choose i choose myself rather than conform for you, take your
authority and shove it, individual in charge you've got to love it, absent minded
blue collar worker, a jerk or whatever you think i should be...i don't give a damn
what you think about me, your vision's distorted, and your ego's in charge

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.

i dont really know what this song means, but i know what it means to me. i had a really bad experience with this chick, and this song helped me. its like i was puppy-dogging her, stuck in a flatline, with no say-so, until i broke out, and i chose myself rather than to conform to who she wanted me to be. her vision was distorted, and her ego was in charge...
