People Are All Sad Lyrics

It would be nice if we could put away and throw out everything except what really mattered.
But reality is just cruel.

In such times, I see you laughing whenever I close my eyes.
Until the day I reach eternal sleep, that smiling face will have to stay with me without fail.

People are all sad, so they and forget.

For that which I should love, for that which gives me love, I will do what I can.

Back then when we met, it was all awkward.
We went the long way, didn't we?
We got hurt, didn't we?
We went the long way, didn't we?
We got hurt.

Until the day I reach eternal sleep, that smiling face will have to stay with me without fail.

People are all sad, so they go and forget.

For that which I should love, for that which give me love, I will do what I can.

Back then, when we met, it was all awkward.
(And it should've stayed that way.)
We went the long way, didn't we?
We got hurt, didn't we?
We went the long way, didn't we?
We got hurt.

We went the long way, didn't we?
We got hurt, didn't we?
We went the long way, didn't we?
We got there in the end.

It would be nice if we could put away and throw out everything except what really mattered.
But reality is just cruel.

In such times, I see you laughing whenever I close my eyes. 
Until the day I reach eternal sleep, that smiling face will have to stay with me without fail.

People are all sad, so they and forget.

For that which I should love, for that which gives me love, I will do what I can.

Back then when we met, it was all awkward.
We went the long way, didn't we?
We got hurt, didn't we?
We went the long way, didn't we?
We got hurt.

Until the day I reach eternal sleep, that smiling face will have to stay with me without fail.

People are all sad, so they go and forget.

For that which I should love, for that which give me love, I will do what I can.

Back then, when we met, it was all awkward.
(And it should've stayed that way.)
We went the long way, didn't we?
We got hurt, didn't we?
We went the long way, didn't we?
We got hurt.

We went the long way, didn't we?
We got hurt, didn't we?
We went the long way, didn't we?
We got there in the end.

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 was written about the pains of an old relationship and not being able to block them out but still trying to hold on to the good things that they remember of the person.

ADPH=awesomeness! I don't think I can choose their best song but this is definitely a favorite. Love you guys.
