In The Red Lyrics

WE'VE BEEN GOOD, BUT I KNOW WE CAN DO BETTER
IT'S EXACTLY WHAT'S EXPECTED RIGHT DOWN TO THE LETTER
IF NOTHING'S CHANGED THEN WHERE'S MY BRAIN
IF THERE'S NO REACTION, WE'RE BORED AGAIN
TIME TO TURN THE VOLUME UP MORE THAN BEFORE
FOR THOSE CORRUPT
IN THE RED
JUST LOOK AT YOUR ALTERNATIVES
WE'RE NOT SOME FUCKING GROUP FOR HERE AND
WE WOULDN'T SING FLAT IF WE WERE REALLY A CHIOR
WHAT'S TO GAIN BY WHAT WE'RE PLAYING?
UNLESS IT'S WATERED DOWN IT'S NOT ACCEPTED BY THE MAINSTREAM
LOUD AND FAST
GOT NO MONEY, COULDN'T CARE LESS
PLAY IT LOUDER
I DON'T LIKE THAT FUCKIN SCENE
YOU SAY IT'S PART MACHINE
HE THINKS IT'S SOO NICE OR CLEAN
THEY JUST WANT TO BE THE STARS
WHO MAKES MONEY WITH GUITARS?
WHY WOULD THEY ACCEPT ANYTHING?
WE DON'T TRY TO RELATE TO THE CONSUMER'S TASTE
I COULDN'T THINK STRAIGHT IF WE WERE GREEN DAY
WE'LL PLAY LOUD INSTEAD, TILL THE METER'S IN THE RED
WE'LL LOSE OUR FUCKIN HEADS CAUSE THIS IS NOT DEAD

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.
