The Truth Hurts Lyrics

(answering machine)
Hello?
Hi its me.
Would you pick up the phone?
Oh cmon i know youre there would you just pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
I know youre there, i know how your mind works.
hello?
Listen, i know youve got problems
and youre depressed
And ive got problems too.
Will you just pick up the goddamn phone cause i know youre there
so just pick up the fucking phone
im not gonna put up with this shit anymore
im so sick of waiting for you

Thats how you wanna play it, thats fine, cause i can deal without this shit, you know what I mean?

No you probably dont.

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 can sooo relate to this situation ... I'm dying to leave this message to a certain person @ the mo :P
