Separate Lyrics

Could I be the only one here
The one and only mistake
And I don't mind the sound of your voice
But hate the words that you say, that you say

Could you separate
Separate me from the sin
Is it not too late
To try and start again
Can you separate
All the darkness from my eyes,
Try to cover me
Try to cover me because I'd rather be alone now

Wash away the blood you spilled
And lay down in the bed that you made
Don't mean nothing, don't mean nothing to me
There was nothing I could do
Nothing I could say to pull you away, to pull you away

Could you separate
Separate me from the sin
Is it not too late
To try and start again
Can you separate
All the darkness from my eyes, seperate
Try to cover me
Try to cover me because I'd rather be alone now

Help me
I don't think, don't think that you can
Help me
Make this make sense to me
Cause I'd rather be alone now
Don't think, don't think that you can
Help me
Help me to forgive and forget

Could you separate
Separate me from the sin
Is it not too late
To try and start again
Can you separate
All the darkness from my eyes
Wash away the blood you spilled
And lay down in the bed that you made

Could you separate
Separate me from the sin
Is it not too late
To try and start again
Can you separate
All the darkness from my eyes
Try to cover me because I'd rather be alone now

I don't think, don't think that you can
Help me, can you separate
Help me, can you separate
Don’t think that you can
Help me

Could I be the only one here 
The one and only mistake 
And I don't mind the sound of your voice 
But hate the words that you say, that you say

Could you separate 
Separate me from the sin 
Is it not too late
To try and start again 
Can you separate 
All the darkness from my eyes,
Try to cover me
Try to cover me because I'd rather be alone now

Wash away the blood you spilled 
And lay down in the bed that you made 
Don't mean nothing, don't mean nothing to me 
There was nothing I could do 
Nothing I could say to pull you away, to pull you away

Could you separate 
Separate me from the sin 
Is it not too late
To try and start again 
Can you separate 
All the darkness from my eyes, seperate
Try to cover me
Try to cover me because I'd rather be alone now

Help me
I don't think, don't think that you can 
Help me
Make this make sense to me 
Cause I'd rather be alone now 
Don't think, don't think that you can 
Help me
Help me to forgive and forget

Could you separate 
Separate me from the sin 
Is it not too late
To try and start again 
Can you separate 
All the darkness from my eyes
Wash away the blood you spilled 
And lay down in the bed that you made

Could you separate 
Separate me from the sin 
Is it not too late
To try and start again 
Can you separate 
All the darkness from my eyes
Try to cover me because I'd rather be alone now

I don't think, don't think that you can
Help me, can you separate
Help me, can you separate
Don’t think that you can
Help me

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.
