These Games We Play Lyrics

pull myself and the curtains off of the sheets.
last night steps desperate conversations.
i knew when i lost it.
i lost you.
its been years is this my way of saying. sorry i pushed you too far?
i need to lose this edge and clear my head.
this is intense i need to clear my fucking head.
our secrets kept behind closed doors, now revealed.
how many secrets have you shared with everyone?
don't throw me against the wall you hold my throat.
so i can't breathe so i won't breathe. how could i have been so close?
those eyes weren't yours.
why won't i let you pull the stitches from my wrists, like i've let you do so many times before?
i've only got one week to live

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.
