A Nocturne For The Harpies Lyrics

If you take me where I want to go, I’ll take you where you think we are. A place where no one goes and a time when no one cares…I’ll be left with these words…[We are the romantics right hand men…we are holding the harpies by the teeth]…Just listen…when I lost…i let things go…it made me realize that closed minds and open hearts is an equation for disaster…extend your head and place it left of right. Do you feel that? I am the mask. When the daybreaks and I walk away from everything I have ever known...I’ll remind myself… [when there’s miles to go before sleep, there’s miles to go before sleep...All the while, I’ll create a place between now and then and discover how heartbreak changed the world…so instead of the phone...pick up the booze…and drown in your sorrows.] There’s plenty of time to say goodbye, so why start now, why start now? How many times would I be willing to try?……….more than you know (more than I am willing to admit.)

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.
