i shouldve sent flowers Lyrics

I shouldn't have said that.
What was I thinking, what was I doing?
Where did I go wrong?
I walked so far and followed for so long
just to say the wrong thing
It's going to be a good time
and I know you're not coming
Set it free if it loves you...
it's not coming back
I've lost weight and I look pale
But you look good, I couldn't help but notice
I've lost weight and I look pale
but you look good, I couldn't help myself
Just like last time, just like this time
Just like next time, just like the last time
I was your number one god damn fan
I was the best friend you never had
I was your number one god damn fan
I was the best you'll never have
Is this supposed to make it better?
If you're going to burn it, burn it all
Burn it all and walk away
What was I thinking, what was I doing?
What was I thinking, where did I go wrong?
What were we thinking, what were we doing?
What were we thinking, where did we go wrong?
I haven't been sleeping, but I've been dreaming
I haven't been eating, but I've been thinking
I've found the best place in the world

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 SHOULDNT HAVE SED THAT! the way that line hits me and sucks me into the angry fist-in-the-air nature of the song is amazing.
