Highschool Lyrics

Someone from my high school must have really hurt me too.
Maybe that's why I will always stand by you.
I've been down a long trail saddled with a sad old mare.
I'm hoping you'll arrive soon without a care.
But if you take the wrong turn, well you are gonna lose my love
Cause it can take a lot more than a push or shove.

So someone start the countdown.
Will someone flick the radio on?
Because I am all packed up and I don't want to go.

We'll hear a spirit cool and strong at the heart of autumn's song.
Your lips are moving but can you sing along or will you get it wrong?
And if you catch me looking backwards
to the rings where I've thrown my hat
The sentimental side roads are just that.

So, someone start the countdown.
Will someone flick the radio on?
Because I am all shook up and I don't want to go.

Someone from my high school must have really hurt me bad.
Maybe that's why I know what it is to be sad.
When it's finally over or at least you're feeling more like you,
I know you won't ask me to leave you too.

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.
