Seven-Eighty Lyrics

i still don't want to play your game; you said the thrill has been lost and can't be regained; you said you'd rather watch the rain than think of me, cause it makes you feel so free. we'll walk past the memories, i will wave as you turn away. if i was talking to you and not writing this maybe i could show you something you haven't seen. my lips would fight my mind, i'd say things at the right time. i'd still wait for you if that's what it took, we could run into the future without a second look; you said you'd rather chase the wind than think of me, cause you need room to breathe.

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.

Ok ok... my opinion..

The girl has become totally not interested.. The guy still loves her. The girl just wants to move on but he wants to go back in time to when they were in love. He sort of beats him self up inside by saying if he had the guts to talk to the girl, he could show her how much he really did care.
