Slender Frame Lyrics

Your coat is hanging loosely
On your slender frame
There's many roads to lave by
But few come back again

I don't believe it
I believe it

Take a look around and see
What's stopping you is stopping me
One moonless night and we'll make it right
And vanish in the dark of night

Pack up your things and go
Run down the road, don't take it slow
Pack up your things today and run away
Yeah, run away

You say it's useless crying
Never got you far
You claim there's none as lonely
Lonely as you are

I don't believe it
I believe it

Take a look around and see
What's breaking you is breaking me

One moonless night we'll make it right
And vanish in the dark of night

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.

Another song along the lines of Springsteen's Born to Run. About running away from a bad oppressive situation, smalltown life ? Yet having doubts about the same. Whether to make the break or not, whether to run away and start a new life or not.

I think @maqsimillion pretty much nailed it. This is actually the theme song of my life right now. Been in a town that I'm not happy in for too long (stayed for my family and because my mom was worried about me. She was the glue that kept our family together). My mother passed away 7 months ago, and I don't get along with my stepdad, and my brother has his own life. It's time to "pack up your things and go!" A brand new life awaits, and I am excited but uncertain at the same time. I will let NO ONE stand in the way of me having a brand new life and the happiness and prosperity I deserve after much suffering.
