Calm and Collapsed Lyrics

I don't feel anything
Isn't that amazing
I don't want everything
Just a little bit of nothing

But even if it feels strange
It stands apart from nature
Even if you don't know
Where the circuit breaker

Why calm and collapsed
Why calm and collapsed
Why calm and collapsed
We were calm and collapsed

Is it just me lyin' here
Or is someone breathing
Why do I live in fear
When I'm not sure you're here

Cuz even if it feels strange
It stands apart from nature
Even if you don't know
Where the circuit breaker

Why calm and collapsed
Why calm and collapsed
Why calm and collapsed
We were calm and collapsed

So break me down
Our love isn't cool
So break me down
And crucify me again

Cuz even if it feels strange
It stands apart from nature
Even if you don't know
Where the circuit breaker

Givin' up a feelin', I'm feelin' no existance

Why calm and collapsed
Why calm and collapsed
Why calm and collapsed
We were calm and collapsed
I'm calm and collapsed

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.
