Buffy Lyrics

This is ludicrous speed. What's here and now and intended to be clear to the senses passes as a blur. Obsession: desire. Desire: obsession. I know the answer inside is fighting the image of beauty and security. I can hear it gnawing at my consciousness in the background. Groveling, unnerving, yet deaf to nonsensical ears. I fear why I desire. I understand how this all works and yet I'm still fixated. Saturday nights are just the start, a day or two into the week and I'm half way back, By the time I get home I'm back there again. I am completely aware and yet somehow I'm forced to the margins. Bench warming and there seems little chance of me getting out alive. A person no more. I watch and I watch. Absurd recap. A person no more and it feels so good it hurts. I watch again. Recapitulation. Worn down. This is not where I want to be. Unfamiliar mirrors. I wonder what has become of my life.

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.
