Looked At You From Here Lyrics

Where was I, when you, left for cold and beaten and worn. If you could, only see, that I was just a little bit torn
My thoughts, escape, when thoughts of you creep back to me. When I, told you, I thought you were just drifting away- I fought, back tears, as you walked away from me. Now I, see that, childhood cannot be the same.

I thought I could give-All that you could take. All I wanted to know: Was that I was your love

And I thought that I
Could hold back the pain
For a longer time
Now I know I was done

I cried when it was gone.. It sank in far too late.. It failed for much too long.. This force that took my heart..

As the time ticks by- And I hold onto
All the thoughts when I Looked at you from here. Looked at you from here...

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.

Taken from their webiste [www.adventwrath.com]. This is what Jack [their lyricist / vocalist] said about this song, considering he wrote it:

"This was the first song I wrote with the band after replacing the former singer, Mike. This was also the first song I wrote with a full band behind me, so this song holds a special place in my song writing career. I remember hearing the chorus for the first time and I was immediately enthralled, needless to say it is catchy as hell and I wanted to write lyrics to it that reflected that. It originally had a whole different meaning, but it soon became a song about my breakup with a certain someone (Cliché, I know, but ill be damned if it doesn’t mean something.) The whole band considers this song to be a “break song” because we don’t bust our balls playing it. Some people love this song, others not-so-much, but for a first song I think I did well…"
