Look at Me Lyrics

Yeah, look at me in my thirties
Plowing forth, unsteady and unsturdy
But I'm still alive, I'm still alive, I win a prize
I'm still alive
Yeah, look at me, pushing forty
Suiting up for another sortie
And I'm still alive, I'm still alive, I win a prize
I'm still alive
It may not be pretty my life up to here
But something bold and beautiful occurred, I'm not interred
You look at me as a tragic figure
One frivolous moment, I beg to differ
Because I'm still alive, I'm still alive, I win a prize, I'm still alive
I'm still alive, I'm still alive, I win a prize, I'm still alive
It may not be pretty, my life up to here
But something bold and beautiful occurred
I'm not interred

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.
