Dirge Lyrics

remember that night we compared our height we had a bit to drink & laughed & smiled & said goodbye
we turned away not knowing that tomorrow would be the first day not to come

i close my eyes
awake to tears
i look away knowing today i bury a memory

could've been me out there in the street or it could have been you walking home with me
stop myself and stare awhile into a dark hallway that once was light
blows my mind
everything change

i close my eyes
awake to tears
i look away knowing today i bury a memory

i close my eyes
awake to tears
i look away knowing today i bury a memory

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.
