Some Came Running Lyrics

out on the road little boys let their beards grow
oh so busy talking about the things that we don't know
all done worrying about the things we used to be
(i'm to busy finding out what i'm gonna be)

and finding weapons of mass destruction
to combat this boredom that claws at my eyes, my ears

no longer can i worry about whether these words
have touched your or failed you...
fuck, you're too busy bitching about
clothes that do not fit

"so play the violins"

i'll keep getting in the van
worry about money for the rest of my life
just so that you can have this to talk about
our time is to spend time with you
and if you don't want it well that's fine too

walk right out that door
this room was growing cold with you
this room that is my home

and i cannot
and i must not
and i will not
let clean shaven boys that all look the same
toss hand grenades into this my faith

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 first heard this song on Atticus's CD Dragging The Lake II. It is a good song and Bane doesnt get enough credit for their good lyrics! DOWN WITH THE GOVERNMENT!!!

this song is amazing, im pretty sure its about weaving out the people who don't give a fuck about his band from the shows, the people who aren't really into it. the beards growing are the kids who are really into it, and the clean shaven boys are all of the kids who just blend in, he wants them to walk out the door, he wont let those dicks try to destroy what is so important to him (toss hand grenades into this my faith) thats my take
