Repeater Lyrics

I've done things I shouldn't have done
Said things I shouldn't have said
Read things I shouldn't have read
But I'm old
Even though I may look just 19
There are things I've seen
that make me feel like 91
can't be that hard
this has all been done before
this has all been felt before
this has all been said before
I'm not the first human alive

So why the pain?
I said I was sorry
is anyone there to hear my call?
everything's grey
they say that love conquers
it seems to me it does nothing at all
nothing at all

I've been in this life too long
need to go make a change
instead I write dumb songs
am I old?
seems like a lot has happened for 19
God, the things I've seen
I'm surprised I've lived this long

Can't be that hard
this has all been done before
this has all been felt before
this has all been said before
I'm not the first human alive

So why the pain?
I said I was sorry
is anyone there to hear my call?
everything's grey
they say that love conquers
it seems to me it does nothing at all
nothing at all

Love has let me down
Love has let me down

I've done things I shouldn't have done
Said things I shouldn't have said
Read things I shouldn't have read
But I'm old
Even though I may look just 19
There are things I've seen 
that make me feel like 91
can't be that hard
this has all been done before
this has all been felt before
this has all been said before
I'm not the first human alive

So why the pain?
I said I was sorry
is anyone there to hear my call?
everything's grey
they say that love conquers
it seems to me it does nothing at all
nothing at all

I've been in this life too long
need to go make a change
instead I write dumb songs
am I old?
seems like a lot has happened for 19
God, the things I've seen
I'm surprised I've lived this long

Can't be that hard
this has all been done before
this has all been felt before
this has all been said before
I'm not the first human alive

So why the pain?
I said I was sorry
is anyone there to hear my call?
everything's grey
they say that love conquers
it seems to me it does nothing at all
nothing at all

Love has let me down
Love has let me down

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.

this song is amazing! i love it they are such a small band at the time but still amazing... still i think its basically saying that he isnt the first songwritter and that he knows he is going to have a challenge to become big and he is amazed at all the things he's seen even though he is so young
