Song For The Suspect Lyrics

I can still watch those eyes
Crawling over her dress until
I could show you everything
But I don't have to hear the words
Cause I already feel your thoughts
So it comes as no surprise
That all the intent is real
And all the suspects are right

And if we stop
It all falls down

Cover my eyes
Obey my ignorance
To purify you
I'll only watch you rot
Without malicious intent
Your doubt resembles someone else
Stick the needles in me
Stick the needles in
Stick the needles in
Stick the needles in

And if we watch
It all come down
Breathe and let it go
Dropped and winding

Fuck your confession
Fuck your confusion
Fuck your confession
Fuck your confusion
Dissolve my insides
And make it hide

Crawling on dignity
That which you do to me
Hold on forever
The fair day we...
Weather

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.

Everlong

Wondering why more people havn't commented on this song, This song has a very powerful meaning to me, as it describes exactly how I felt in the 'ends' of my last relationship. Anyway this is definatly one of my favorite by AHC but theres so many others.

to me, i see this at him talking to an ex, who cheated, or betrayed him. And "to purify you, i'd only watch you rot" i suspect means that the only way TO purify them is for them to die. i listened to this song quite a bit when me and my ex broke up, lol. But yeah AHC has some kick ass lyrics, i'm with Sahagiel
