Best Kept Secret Lyrics

i'm breathing bated breath
but you haven't waited yet

i know that it's too soon to say
but you won't come clean
i made you sad
that's why you went away
i made you sad
i know that's why you went away
because when you're right, i'm wrong
when you're wrong, i'm still wrong

i had my halo screwed to my head
cause once ??? keeps the best kept secret, yeah
i made you sad
i know that's why you ran away
i made you sad
i know that's why you ran away

when you're off splitting hairs
how can i acknowledge you when you're not there
i've got a feeling now
i can't believe it's true
i've got a feeling now
i can't believe it's true
yeah yeah

because when you're right, i'm wrong
when you're wrong, i'm still wrong

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.
