Stay Lyrics

if i was to sit beside you,
i wouldnt know what to say,
i did everything you wanted to,
why do you treat me this way.
i took you places you wanna go,
i even called you on the phone,
you said tonight would be the one..
when i call your not even home.
tell me more...
did i want you to treat me this way?
tell me more...
please, the reason is, i dont really wanna stay.
you give me ancy promises,
wich that you dont spend to keep.
i give you trust and confidence,
you give me doubt and sleep.
tell me more.
did i want you to treat me this way?
tell me more.
or do you read my lips "im not here to stay"
i know you've heard this song before,
you dont want this.
it will get you a self guided say
"im not gonna...miss.....this chance"
tell me more.
did i want you to treat me this way?
tell me more.
please, relax, i dont really wanna stay.

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.

too bad they broke up eh? it was a sad day for all. haha well maybe not all, but it definatley wasnt a good day. i wish these boys were still around, the last 4 songs they put onto mp3.com before they broke up were 4 of the best songs ive ever heard, and they progressed so much since there first album, it was crazy. Best to luck to these guys in any new projects they start
