Dogs Will Bark Lyrics

Dogs Will Bark
If you want to take away every chance I have to win... Don't be surprised when I lose over and over again. If you take away my choices then you leave me no choice, if you want to hush the words I say, if you want to hush my voice... Slam the door in my face, but I'll keep knocking until you let me in. Knock me on my back, but I'll rise again. Your empty words say so much to me. I choose to walk alone in your world where ignorance reigns supreme. Dogs will bark. Come and take me... dogs will bark. Try and make me... dogs will bark. Come and take me... dogs will bark. Try and break me... Dogs will bark.

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.

Y!!!

Feckin Erie - the shite town that it is, and they always get rid of/shut down every good thing that there are for kids to do. We'll go nuts, break into people's houses and dogs will bark at us...

That's how Mike explained it once on stage.
