Wide-Eyed And Lonely Lyrics

Open up your eyes and see what you've become
Confronting weakness when it's easier to run
You speak in vagaries and you have come undone
The dust will settle and you'll be the only one

Give me some sympathy
Leave me to dream
Wide eyed and lonely
Live where I can't be

You should have known
You should have known what it would be
You should have known
You should have known what I would be

Fight back and rage against the things you cannot see
Distrust and tear apart and blame it all on me

Give me some sympathy
Leave me to dream
Wide eyed and lonely
Live where I can't be

You should have known
You should have known what it would be
You should have known
You should have known what I would be

You should have known
You should have known what it would be
You should have known
You should have known what I would be

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.
