Ride Lyrics

I won't live forever where will I go will I miss the war will I miss the snow I love the way the water comes down like acid rain for when I'm gone they'll carry on but in your head you're all dead your brain's cold from what's been told and there you sit begging change don't you get it you're still in their shooting range this is life not a game and it's getting real old your body is hungry for your soul's been sold now you're trapped deep inside my kind of ride 69 stories down down better better run and hide ride I won't live forever where will I go will I miss the war will I miss the snow I love the way the water comes down like acid rain for when I'm gone they'll carry on for when I'm gone they'll carry on where will I go

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.
