Coming Home Lyrics

I spent my last night
Strung up and pulled tight
I could see it go either way
Just one move
Just one falter
Just one falter

I should remember this forever
Nothing cuts bad like burning
I’m coming home
I’m coming home

Wonder why I’m so caught off guard
With your kiss
Rather live my life with regrets than do this

What happened to the love we both knew,
We both chased
Hanging by her silhouette
You need me
You burn me
You burn 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.

Such a beautiful song. Yes, it's pretty damn depressing, but Jimmy Eat World pulls off sad very well. Hell, they pull off everything very well.
