Better Day Lyrics

all i had to do was to be nice
but, no! no! no!
i just fucked it up!
it's been like that for my whole life
and if i was born again
it'd be the same
one thing at a time
yeah! i lied
yeah! i'm scared

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13 seconds left
it's the time i had to run away
but i forgot and woke up late
like everyday
one thing at a time
yeah! i lied
yeah! i'm scared

i just quit it all
i'm not ashamed
i would rather wait for a better day
if you would have been with me that day
i know things would be a different way

all i had to do was to be nice
but, no! no! no!
i just fucked it up!
it's been like that for my whole life
and if i was born again
it'd be the same
one thing at a time
yeah! i lied
yeah! i'm scared

just quit it all
i'm not ashamed
i would rather wait for a better day
if you would have been with me that day
i know things would be a different way

i just quit it all
i'm not ashamed
i would rather wait for a better day
if you would have been with me that day
i know things would be a different way

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.
