My Reply Lyrics

This is my reply. My pleading cry.
A tattered page in the waves of eternity.
But it's all I have.
Just hear me out one last time. I promise not to let you down.
So take my words for what you will, and try to understand.
Live and learn. Love and learn.
You know I still feel it burning when I see the hurt in your eyes.
I'd take it back if I could. So young, misunderstood.
Here is my reply.
This will be the last time I'm falling in love.
It feels like the first time all over again.
I'm taking my time this time to get it right
I needed you to know that this will be the last time.
Live. Learn. Feel it burn.

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 hit me hard when I first heard it months ago. It's still my favorite song and I haven't gotten tired of it or sick of the band since then. Brightwood is freaking amazing
