Ifs And Buts Lyrics

if i was immortal,
i'd lose my mind
if i commited suicide would that be unkind?
if i won the lottery id go mad
if i died tomorrow would that be so bad?
if i wrote a book it would be fantasy
if i went to heaven you'd be in ecstacy

but im staying as i am
you havent got the better of me
i hate you for what you've done blaming it all on me

chorus
inside your so confused
by the voices in your head
contradicting your decision
you might aswell be dead

if i was to complain you wouldnt care
if i was to confess would anybody be there?
if i went insane would it be surprise?
if i was nice to you could i live with myself

chorus

you always think that your right
but your always wrong
you dont care about the world or what you've done

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.
