Extinguish Lyrics

i'm going to begin to burn down this house that we built together
i will ignite each room, one by one
my heart will not feed my flames
what led you to this betrayal of my feelings?
you want to be so strong and hold to your selfish convictions
what about our commitment
how can i fill this gray spot in my heart? i thank you
though i'm frightened because i'm sinking deeper
you've locked the door to my seclusion
my own cell, i hate everything, everyone, including myself
my heart will not feed my flames that i've ignited to erase
how can i fill this gray spot, in my heart?
no clean break, no clean slate, just a dusty chalk board

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.
