I Am The Cosmos Lyrics

every night I tell myself I am the cosmos
I am the wind
but that don't get you back again
just when I was starting to feel okay
you're on the phone
I never wanna be alone
never wanna be alone
I'd hate to have to take you home
wanted so much to say no

[Yeah, yeah, yeah]
[Yeah, yeah, yeah]

never wanna be alone
hate to have to take you home
want you to bad to say no, no

[Yeah, yeah, yeah]
[Yeah, yeah, yeah]

my feelings always tell me something i couldn't hide
I can confide
don't know what's going on inside
so every night I tell myself I am the cosmos
I am the wind
but that don't get you back again
I'd really like to see you again
I really want to see you again
I'd really like to see you again
[that don't get you back again]
I really want to see you again
I'd really like to see you again
I really want to see you again
I'd really like to see you again
[that don't get you back again]
I'd really like to see you again
I know I'd like to see you again
I never want to see you again

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.
