Heaven Lyrics

Submitted by

It's so beautiful here
The swallows are swinging and swaying
                 Sweetly tweeting in the fruit trees
 Sparrows hip hop into my hands
                 And somehow I hold them
   And gently pet their wings
                 Why is this happening here, now?
     I was in tears yesterday
                 Tattered and near lifeless
       Have I died and passed into the afterworld?
                 I must have
         This is heaven
                 How did I get here?
           Let me retrace my steps
                 What happened yesterday?
             I was in tears yesterday, near lifeless
                 Something sad must've happened, but what?
              What was I crying about?
                  Is it over?
                Is it okay now?
                   Who am I talking to?
                 What's going on?
                      Oh no!
                  Now the sparrow is broken and mangled in my bloody 
hands
                        This is so awful
                   Giant flying insects are crawling all over me,
                          Biting and laughing
                    This is even worse than being alive
                            This is worse than being alive
                      Even worse than being alive
                               I hate this

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.
