I Wish It Was Over Lyrics

I wish it was over
I wish we were through
I wish when my phone rang
It wasn’t always you

I don’t even like you
Or can’t you tell
Whenever I’m sober
I treat you like hell

I wish it was over
I wish it was over
I wish it was over

If I could be stronger
And not so weak
Instead of just thinking
Maybe I could speak

I don’t think you’re special
You’re certainly not smart
This being together
Is tearing me apart

I wish it was over
I wish it was over
I wish it was over

I wish it was over

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.

Even though this song is probably about a destructive relationship of some sort, I can't help but feel it is equally about him. In a way, there's so much self loathing in this song.
