Tattoo Lyrics

another desperate call you're not around i got a head so full of worry cuz you're nowhere to be found displaced and out of order i've been down on my hands and knees so many nights crawling around this place for days well i know you heard me say it all before i can bleed myself so many times before i start to doubt but this time i'm gonna let it go you're way too far away and i got too much that i wanna say and now i'm hangin on to every word i never said to you here in this phone booth guess i'll wait around and pay my dues tonight i got a new best friend chemical inebriation i'm passin time without you all alone i was never one for patience i was never one for trust i'm a little bit neurotic so ignore me if you must this brain of mine won't let me let it go i'm not gonna let you get away i got too much that i wanna say

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.

This is probably one of the best Strung Out songs, Amazing Lyrics, Amazing Guitar Riffs, all around Fantastic song. You cant beat Strung out when it comes to Technical Riffs for their music, and Brandon's voice is just unstopable
