John Wayne Lyrics

did you think i'd change my mind
i know you think i watch you sleep
but my heart will never keep
could you ever act your age

i'd act jealous, but i'd hate to make your week
so no more (you will with me?)
i find it hard to sleep, cause i know what you need
i know you need your faith, so i'm killing you with lies

fooled you, fooled myself without even trying
that's over now
fooled you, and never even got to say i'm sorry
you were sorry first

well it's worth about as much as mine, dear
it's only rivaled by the burning summertime
and the winter of blue cold feet
i find it hard to sleep, cause i know what you need
i know you need your faith, so i'm killing you with eyes

fooled you, fooled myself without even trying
that's over now
fooled you, and never even got to say i'm sorry
you were sorry first

you know what sorry's really worth

i won't hurt you, i won't even pray at all
better yet if i'm all alone
shredding (phrases?) like shredding paper
most, i'm not fallin for you, i'm not falling for you
not you

Not A Dull Moment

did you think i'd change my mind
i know you think i watch you sleep
but my heart will never keep
could you ever act your age

i'd act jealous, but i'd hate to make your week
so no more (you will with me?)
i find it hard to sleep, cause i know what you need
i know you need your faith, so i'm killing you with lies

fooled you, fooled myself without even trying
that's over now
fooled you, and never even got to say i'm sorry
you were sorry first

well it's worth about as much as mine, dear
it's only rivaled by the burning summertime
and the winter of blue cold feet
i find it hard to sleep, cause i know what you need
i know you need your faith, so i'm killing you with eyes

fooled you, fooled myself without even trying
that's over now
fooled you, and never even got to say i'm sorry
you were sorry first

you know what sorry's really worth

i won't hurt you, i won't even pray at all
better yet if i'm all alone
shredding (phrases?) like shredding paper
most, i'm not fallin for you, i'm not falling for you
not you

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.

I love this song. I believe that its "shredding friends is like shredding paper". Anyway, it's a travesty that I am the first comment on this song. This song is so spectacular. You simply must go and listen to it now if you haven't heard it.
