Pebbles + Weeds Lyrics

Stay afloat
Pebbles and weeds grow in my throat
I can't keep this up for long
I know it shows
There's always a ways to go
So what, there's always something wrong
Your thoughts are twisted and unkind
You should've scrubbed that from your mind
They're here
No doubting it
The lights are wired
Dig it, you will find
Life's taken all the fragrant blows
Couple of things are cool
Still most shit blows
Least it can be different
Then u know
Power, Feel the power
I'm in a state
My that black shit tastes great
so what's your problem with
It's shit
Stay afloat
Pebbles and weeds grow in my throat
I can't keep this up for long
I know it shows
There's always a ways to go
So what, there's always something wrong
Your thoughts are twisted and unkind
You should've scrubbed that from your mind
Fearful and low

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.

Underrated d. Jr. song, great lyrics (that I really relate to ngl), killer guitar and just great vocals and vibe. Kind of a love letter to noise and power and metal.
