Crawl Lyrics

As I lay this all to rest
Shadows appear reminding me
Of all things left unsaid by me

Maybe one day you'll believe
That I will crawl
I will crawl on broken knees

It's beyond what you really need
Forcing it all out of you
Will I make your life complete
Come clean

Maybe one day you'll believe
That I will crawl
I will crawl on broken knees

Am I the sorrow
That you won't reap
Am I the secret
That you can't keep
Well I won't stop
Until I'm complete
And I won't stop
Until you believe
I won't stop until you need me

Maybe one day you'll believe
That I will crawl
I will crawl on broken knees

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.

i think this song is kind of about a guy having a fight with his girlfriend and he didnt say what he really wanted to say to her so he just dropped it ("as i lay this all to rest, shadows appear reminding me, all the things left unsaid by me") and then after they've had a fight he just crawls right back to her. She wont forgive him for the things he might have said so thenhe deciides that he wont stop tryyingg to get her forgiveness and until she believs him when he says hes sorry.

yeah i could relate to the song by what you said... only in my point of view he isnt asking for forgiven rather than just trying to get to her..maybe she just broke him up and shoved him away or something

but the idea of crawling with broken knees...goose bump
