How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

“Dead Star” was released with the song “In Your World” as a promotional double A-side single for Muse’s first B-sides/live album release Hullabaloo Soundtrack.

Songwriter Matt Bellamy says the inspiration for the song came from watching the hysteria, chaos and general aftermath following the 9/11 attacks.
