World Over Lyrics

Throw away those pictures
And anything I sent
And the postcard told you something that I never meant
While I was far away
You were with me all the time
Thoughts of innocent cries and fall asleep eyes
I GUESS THIS WOLD IS OVER
I KNOW I'M GETTING OLDER
I GUESS THIS WORLD IS OVER
I KNOW I'M GETTING OLDER
Weeks to go before I leave for good
You don't know by now
But I know you should
Boring sunsets and walks around the town
As I think and pace...
...and curse the ground
I curse the ground
I GUESS THIS WORLD IS OVER
I KNOW I'M GETTING OLDER
Fake surpise when I show up at your door
Who is it? Where did you come from? Who...
...put you up to this?
Don't act like you don't care or resist..pretend.

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.
