Drown Ink Lyrics

Thanks for these new sheets
But I've been hanging
Fire from your everyday
The knack for the fixed
Been holding water
That you snatched away

Bells and whistles make the man
Like you're a hophead
Waiting to happen
A welcome waiting to offend
Who will buy the farm?

The sheep with their longing to shed (x2)
Longing to shed...

My fellow and gone
Chiefs custom make us
Who we are... (x2)
...hello

My fellow and gone
Chiefs custom make us
Who we are...
So my Father and my Mom
You will always hold shelter
In my heart... love lasts

To escape the customary cycles of parables
The world begins anew
And we are inseparable
They said you brought light
The doors are always open

My fellow and gone
Chiefs custom make us
Who we are... (x2)
So my Father and my Mom
You will always hold shelter
In my heart...

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.

the chorus part is wrong. it goes, "so much farther than myanmar, you will always hold true in my heart", not "So my Father and my Mom you will always hold shelter in my heart... love lasts"
