Emaculation Lyrics

You know I'd love to see you
Even more all the time
I'm dragging you down and backwards
And upside down
When you leave me here I'm begging
Can't you see I'm more than

I know I'm not the only one
Who needs you like I do
And I know I'm not the only one
Who loves you like I do

Always understanding
You look good to me
Does it make it all
Does it hold you still to it
Does it make you wonderful
And if I go off the track
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait?

And you're so amazing
So amazing to me
And you wait looking lonely
I ache it along you
Fortune it moves you
She's going to let you hold you

My head to you
My arms bend forward
The strength I give
The places I've never been
And now I'm so scared
Tell me, won't you hold my hand?
And I'm trying so hard
I don't want to let you down

God will let you in
When there ain't no place to turn
I was without you
I was with you

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 is about having a crush on a friend and knowing that you can't have them, but it's so hard because at the same time they care for you because you are their friend. The lines of friendship get blurred.

this one's so easy to relate to. i think it's when you really like someone who's just generally well-liked. And not for bad reasons, they're a genuinely great person, except you're not really the only one. No matter how badly you want and need them, you can't be sure they really need you. You can try to impress them or whatever, but so does everyone else... even if you know you're the one who really cares. Who in the world can't relate to a song like this?
