Prices Lyrics

"i love you," i think that's what she told me; "i'm falling for you and i can want you only
and if you give me money then i could want you always."
"it's nothing," she said and then she hit me;
"i love you sometimes so much it kills me
sometimes so much it kills me
sometimes so much it kills me
sometimes so much it kills me
oh if you give me more..."

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.

Nobody's commented on this yet?

Alright. I think the song's about someone just generally abusing a relationship.

"'And I can want you only, and if you give me money then I could want you always.'"

The girl saying this is telling the guy that if he buys her things, she'll always stay with him.

"...and then she hit me; 'I love you sometimes so much it kills me.'"

She's just completely manipulating him and lying, telling him that she loves him just so that she can get material things.

"'Oh, if you give me more...'"

-After stating her undying love, she then asks for more shit. Nice girl, huh?

Anyways, that's a pretty straightforward and excellent song.
