Downward Spiral Lyrics

Ambitious future
Lead to ruin
Inflict suffering
To ease another
Force of habit change your will
Fatal facination deadly addiction
Downward spiral into the depths of dispair
What is this life without any care?
Suffering hour
A craving desire
Endless path
Corrupting the weak
Force of habit change your will
Fatal facination deadly addiction
Downward spiral into the depths of dispair
What is this life without any care?
Vice like grip
Cannot be freed
Rapid descent
Crush a future to be
Inward to need forever a slave
Inward to greed needle to the grave
How does it feel to have no control
And live in a world that's not your own
Misguided child
What is your future?
Plunged into despair
Life of no care
Force of habit change your will
Fatal facination deadly addiction
Downward spiral into the depths of dispair
What is this life without any care?

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.
