Change The World Lyrics

thinking of the mess was made
you became a part of me
Thinking of the wish you made
to break free
Playing you like I can
shoving it in your face
this doesn't break your heart
I'm the one to blame
[Chorus]
I never wanted to change your world
I always wanted the simple things
and whatever happens now
it can't be real
Thinking that you might betray
My own private fantasy
I'm the one that gives
what you need
playing you like I can
Shoving it in your face
if this doesn't tear you apart
I'm the one to blame
[Chorus] x2
Now you're gone
I feel betrayed
You can't blame me
you walked away
Now you're gone
You can't blame me
You walked away
[Chorus] x3
I never wanted to change your world
I always wanted the simple things

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.

according to Scooter at the show in Grand Rapids, MI on March, 13 2003. the song is suppose to be about him, and his success, and himself as a person. people look to him, and they expect a lot from him, because of his success. but in this song, he is trying to say, to not be surprised when he fails.

I personally thought that Cold went on tour a lot, causing Scooter's girlfriend to turn to drugs and eventually die.

In an interview Scooter Ward he said this "“Sometimes relationships work, and sometimes they don’t. When you travel around like we do, you meet people and have a certain effect on them because you’re always gone. You can get to a point where you understand that this person doesn’t want exactly what you want, and they can’t deal with places where you’re at. It’s like, ‘I didn’t mean to drag you into this much pain, but that doesn’t need to go on any further.’ I’m owning up to that with this song.” Scooter Ward"
