Capsized Lyrics

i hate you still
yet i imitate you
you're in my dreams
pushing me around
i move my mouth
i watch her cry
its killing me
and you wonder why
always said i wouldn't be that way
i always said i wouldn't be that way
capsized
cut down to size
Capsized
like colors bleed
now they're all the same to me
i feel his hand
and i know
i'm damned
a puppet on a string
and the man behind the screen
this is the last time i treat you like that
this is the last time i act like a man
this is the last time i drink myself to sleep
this is the last time i act before i think
oh, but the things kids say

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 song is about a man who has treated his wife badly. He feels realy sorry for her, but it's to late, the harm is already done. That's why he feels capsized.

sukkels!

This song is about a guy who realizes that even though he said he wouldn't never be like his abusive father that he has turned into him. ("I hate you still, yet i imitate you"). And now he is abusive his wife like his father did and thats why he feels "capsized!
