Collecting Dust Lyrics

Why are you annoyed with what you just enjoyed?
The destruction of enerything.
I know I just want to be adored.

I was just a boy when you could not enjoy
the instructions for everything.
I know you will always be adored.

Here I go.
Why you listen, I don't know.
Taking a chance twards distinction.
But you just sit there anyway...
collecting dust.

Forever is the day when you will go away
with instructions for everything.
Leaving just a body of myself.

I was just a boy when you could not enjoy
my destruction of everything.
I know I will always be adored.

Here I go
Why you listen, I don't know.
Taking a chance twards extinction.
cause forever is today.

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.
