Live Lyrics

People say I'm crazy
I'm starting to believe them
To throw it all away
For something I don't know

I haven't lived my life yet
I'm gonna start living my life right now
I need a way to achieve it
But I got a way to achieve it now

I don't want to fight
I don't want to beg
I just want to live
Who gave you the right
To come down on me
I just want to live

People want to know all the stories
And I wish I could help them
So I'll break the chain
Of rumors that ruin all

I've never known what love is
How can I know what love is now
I need something to believe in
But I've got something to believe in now

I don't want to fight
I don't want to beg
I just want to live
Who gave you the right
To come down on me
I just want to live

I've never known what love is
How can I know what love is now
I need something believe in
But I've got something to believe in now
I've never known what love is
How can I know what love is now, now

I don't want to fight
I don't want to beg
I just want to live
Who gave you the right
To come down on me
I just want to live

She Looks Right Through Me

People say I'm crazy
I'm starting to believe them
To throw it all away
For something I don't know

I haven't lived my life yet
I'm gonna start living my life right now
I need a way to achieve it
But I got a way to achieve it now

I don't want to fight
I don't want to beg
I just want to live
Who gave you the right
To come down on me
I just want to live

People want to know all the stories
And I wish I could help them
So I'll break the chain 
Of rumors that ruin all

I've never known what love is
How can I know what love is now
I need something to believe in
But I've got something to believe in now

I don't want to fight
I don't want to beg
I just want to live
Who gave you the right
To come down on me
I just want to live

I've never known what love is
How can I know what love is now
I need something believe in
But I've got something to believe in now
I've never known what love is
How can I know what love is now, now

I don't want to fight
I don't want to beg
I just want to live
Who gave you the right
To come down on me
I just want to live

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.

Great song.

Pretty much the singer trying to silence people telling him that what he's doing isn't a good idea. He just wants to live his life, and that's what he's going to do.
