Building... Lyrics

I should have known
That you would be somebody
Who would take me back to school
Everything I've known
Is suddenly in question
When I start to share it with you

I should have seen
That you would be the kind of girl
Who'd make my mind up for me
Everything I've thought
Is making no sense to me
When I started to see it your way
When I started to see it your way

Are you breaking me down
Or are you making me more then I am
Are you breaking me down
Or are you building me up to your plans?

I can't get along without you
But girl you make it hard to
Live my life in peace when
I'm so damn busy changing

I can't get along without you
But girl you make it hard to
Live my life in peace when
I'm so damn busy changing

I should have known
That you would be somebody
Who would take me back to school
Everything I've known
Suddenly in question
And I start to share it with you

I should have seen
That you would be the kind of girl
Who'd make my mind up for me
Everything i thought
Is making no sense to me
When I started to see it your way
When I started to see it your way

Are you breaking me down
Or are you making me more then I am
Are you breaking me down
Or are you building me up to your plungs

I can't get along without you
But girl you make it hard to
Live my life in peace when
I'm so damn busy changing

I can't get along without you
But girl you make it hard to
Live my life in peace when
I'm so damn busy changing

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

I should have known
That you would be somebody
Who would take me back to school
Everything I've known
Is suddenly in question
When I start to share it with you

I should have seen
That you would be the kind of girl
Who'd make my mind up for me
Everything I've thought
Is making no sense to me
When I started to see it your way
When I started to see it your way

Are you breaking me down
Or are you making me more then I am 
Are you breaking me down
Or are you building me up to your plans?

I can't get along without you
But girl you make it hard to
Live my life in peace when
I'm so damn busy changing

I can't get along without you
But girl you make it hard to
Live my life in peace when
I'm so damn busy changing

I should have known
That you would be somebody
Who would take me back to school 
Everything I've known
Suddenly in question
And I start to share it with you

I should have seen
That you would be the kind of girl
Who'd make my mind up for me
Everything i thought
Is making no sense to me
When I started to see it your way
When I started to see it your way

Are you breaking me down
Or are you making me more then I am 
Are you breaking me down
Or are you building me up to your plungs

I can't get along without you
But girl you make it hard to
Live my life in peace when
I'm so damn busy changing

I can't get along without you
But girl you make it hard to
Live my life in peace when
I'm so damn busy changing

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.

Just come up on random. Interesting how taken out of the context of the rest of the album it sounds a lot better.

About someone in love with someone who is changing him. He's questioning if it's for his benefit or his, and to be honest he doesn't really care cause he can't live without her.
