Passport Lyrics

(C.W.B. always with me)

i walked into the room
i saw things i'd never seen
the world was so different then
we were so young
but oh, how we change
our lives
then can sometimes seem so strange
how could you do this, we were so young

hold on
i wish that you had held on
i wish that i had been the one
to help you hold on

asleep in the bath
you watchd the new year passing by
the fireworks in your hands
you never questioned why
but oh, tired, weary
this life can sometimes seem
how could you do this
you were so young

hold on
i wish that you had held on
i wish that i had been the one
to help you hold on

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 always reminds me of my ex best friend who died 2 years ago. The first time i heard it, just listening to the lyrics made me cry. Truly a touching song with good lyrics.

A song reflecting on a friend who committed suicide. Or an anthem for anyone who has lost a friend for whatever reason. Also for me this song always reminds me of everyone I couldn't help. I shouldn't blame myself but not helping feels just as bad as hurting. I wish that you had held on. I wish that I had been the one to help you hold on.
