Dead By Dawn Lyrics

How much abuse are we going to take? It is like a verbal kick to the face Will we ever really fit in in this place? That would really be such a disgrace. We'll take our chances, we're still holding on A little bit damaged, but we're still strong So sorry things aren't always nice and sweet more like a fuck in a back seat. CH: We are the rain and sleet, come to ruin your parade and we wont ever fall in line with all of your charades. Pretty like pictures, smelling like roses How can we prove our point surrounded by posers Tell someone who gives a shit I don't want to hear any more of it It's all the same, it's all a game where everything seems to stay the same sick of living by the rules they only serve you to help stay cool Like passing strangers in the night, As you leave would you please turn out the light?

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.
