Land of the Living Lyrics

I found myself in another world
I found myself alive and well
I am the vapour I am the gas
You be the angel of everything

This is the land of the living - the land of reprisal

I lost myself to a wider plain
I opened up I'm not the same
I am electric - made of wire
I'll be the match you be the fire

This is the land of the living - the land of reprisal

In myself I try for you
Walk a thousand miles to get us through...
Airwaves - Jetplanes - Safe landing - No branding...

This is the land of the living - The land of survival

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.

Definately one of my faverotes on the album. Great song, I just like the mood of it. Its different, and his lyrics and voice just sound kind of...trance-like emotional. I cant really explain it. It just strikes a chord in me. espically the interlude, "in myself i try for you..." I just love it.
