One Day Lyrics

Weave through the tall grass
Jab me. Let me know that I'm still alive
Last trip the boy will be taking
Everything from here is crazy
But I know one day I will live and wonder
She will, she'll learn to walk all over again
They will gather once again and...
Pretend. Did you think that one day it would come to this?
Sitting in a stranger's chair, staring at the whitewash-wall
Waiting for the inspiration, invitation to leave this place
Hoping there's a better space to occupy my fall from grace

(chorus)

...hide. Over Hear. Same as it ever was
I've never been through this before
Tell me I'm wrong and keep me here
Am I wrong? I am Wrong...

(chorus)

Keep me in the tall grass
Jab me (the one still sitting in that chair)
First trip the boy is still taking
Run and hide but pretend your exploring

(chorus)

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.
