Stressed Out Lyrics

Your hair looks like
It's falling out
Left in the comb
It won't come off
Your head hangs low
Your legs get weak
Leftovers on the tabletop
And I'm so stressed out yeah
You lift your arms
Over your head
And run your fingers
Through what's left
You eyes tear up
Your stomach burns
You're upside down
Start to invert
And I'm so stressed out yeah
Invert
So you keep on living
But everything still falls apart
Keep being who you're being
And it keeps on falling out
Save yourself
I'm on my last nerve
Save your self
Put on your best swerve
Save yourself
I'm on my last nerve
Save yourself
Self-served
Save yourself
Save yourself

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.

One of my friends said she went to one of their concerts before they released Come Clean. One her friends were friends with one of the band members so they gave her this other CD by them. I don't think you can get it anywhere, you just gotta download the songs.

They have 2 CDs before Come Clean. They are called "Stuck" (their first) and "Abrasive). You can find Abrasive on eBay but its very expensive.
