Ledge Lyrics

it's strange that it's you
that's doing this

love's a window ledge
you're talking me down from it
like you can talk it away
if i say this once
don't talk me out of this
this one thing i have
you talk me out of everything
you're gently wearing me down

for you i'll play along
it's common as waking up
we'll blow it away
i'll give it up quietly

it's nothing
it's nothing, yet it's all right

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 person that she loves surprises her by persuading her away from loving them. It seems like the relationship might be a bit more struggling than the current situation the song presents, through "you talk me out of everything." All the same, she loves this person, would do anything for this person, even if it means falling out of (or at least, pretending to) love with them. And at the end, she thinks it might be okay. Love sacrificed for love.
