Told Me So Lyrics

this distance kills, this distance is killing me
and now it's coming after you
it kills unexpectedly
but now it's clear that
we won't be making it out alive
i never ever planned this to happen
this distance sucks, this distance is terrible
and i just can't take no more
i'm jumping ship
i'm leaving us all behind and not looking back
and all my friend told me
that long distance relationships will fail
and all my friends, they told me so
i hate to admit it but they told me so
i tried my best, i tried as hard as i could
just to keep things together
it was too much for me
don't tell me that it wasn't too much for 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.

This would be my favorite song on the CD. I just love it for some reason. Very quality.
