Like You Lyrics

JUST LIKE YOU I CHOSE A PATH
AND FOUGHT TO MAKE IT WORK
THOUGHT I FOUND WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR
OH GOD I'M FUCKING LOST
LIKE YOU, I FACE REJECTION
LIKE YOU, I LOOK FOR ACCEPTANCE
LIKE YOU, I DON'T ALWAYS DO RIGHT
NOW I'M TRYING TO FIND THE THINGS I FOUGHT TO HIDE
WHEN I WAS YOUNG
I'VE GOT TO FIND
THE THINGS I LEFT BEHIND
NOW ALL I SEE
IS THE DAMAGE I'M CAUSING ME
I'VE FOUND THINGS AREN'T BLACK AND WHITE
I'VE LOST THINGS THAT WERE RIGHT IN SIGHT
I'VE HAD MY SHARE OF DISCOURAGEMENT
I TRIED TO FORGET, I TRIED TO FORGET
I WAS LIKE 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.
