Shell Of A Man Lyrics

Here I am
wondering where im going
and i wonder...
where you are...
not a day goes by
that you dont cross my mind
and i wonder...
how you are...
these past few months..
well they've been pretty rough
and i dont know
who i am
inside im dying
all alone im crying
people say i've lost my mind
but I just cant forget
the way that it felt
when i was in your arms
i have just one request
left to ask
when im gone
wont you play this song

Chorus:
They say my heart it's dying
guess i cant deny it
all thats left
is the shell of a man
he's been broken hearted
one too many times and..
he's given all he has to give

I know its hard for you
to know what im going through
and to understand just
how hard it is
every minute gone by
is a minute that i've lost my mind
a little more
remember these words that you hear
I will always be here
there's a place inside my mind
a place i like to hide
where im still with you

Repeat Chorus:

there aint no use crying
he already died
and all that's left, is the shell of a man

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.
