Suck You Dry Lyrics

Put yourself together
Take a stand forever or
Relax and let yourself go
Put yourself together
Take a stand forever
Get the facts, let your tears flow

Now in times like the present
You'll get rich or poor
You got the burning desire
Aiming straight for your heart

Suck you dry
Suck you dry
Can't breath 'til
I suck you dry

Come a little closer
Before I'm climbing over
Come on, I want you to burn
Come a little closer
Before I take over
Come now, watch my life

Now in times like the present
You'll get rich or poor
You got the burning desire
Aiming straight for your heart

Suck you dry
Suck you dry
Can't breath 'til
I suck you dry

Now in times like the present
You'll get rich or poor
You got the burning desire
Aiming straight for your heart

Suck you dry
Suck you dry
Can't breath 'til
I suck you dry

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.

awesome song, but these aren't even close to the correct lyrics (unless you're on crack, I guess). sample: "no time like the present, to get ripped apart"
