I Sat Down Lyrics

Waiting in the dark
I heard you calling out
Nothing in your heart
And all there is is doubt
If it's in your heart
It's gotta be that way
Why'd you look surprised?
They're only tears that roll from the eyes
I don't need your lies
I heard 'em once, twice and so many times

I sat down
I fought the fools I'd suffered to that day
But all yesterday
Such a million miles away
Oh honey, I sat down
I fought the fools I'd suffered to that day
But

Waiting in the dark
I heard you calling out
Nothing in your heart
And all there is is doubt
If it's in your heart
It's gotta be that way
Why'd you look surprised?
They're only tears that roll from the eyes
I don't need your lies
I heard 'em once, twice and so many times

Now I sat down
I fought the fools I'd tooken to that day
But all yesterday
Such a million miles away
Oh honey, now I sat down
I fought the fools I'd tooken to that day
But all yesterday
Such a million miles away

I lied down...

Rivers of fortune
Lead us to bright light

Now honey I sat down
I fought the fools I'd tooken to that day
But all yesterday
Such a million miles away...

Waiting in the dark
I heard you calling out
Nothing in your heart
And all there is is doubt
If it's in your heart
It's gotta be that way
Why'd you look surprised?
They're only tears that roll from the eyes
I don't need your lies
I heard 'em once, twice and so many times

I sat down
I fought the fools I'd suffered to that day
But all yesterday
Such a million miles away
Oh honey, I sat down
I fought the fools I'd suffered to that day
But

Waiting in the dark
I heard you calling out
Nothing in your heart
And all there is is doubt
If it's in your heart
It's gotta be that way
Why'd you look surprised?
They're only tears that roll from the eyes
I don't need your lies
I heard 'em once, twice and so many times

Now I sat down
I fought the fools I'd tooken to that day
But all yesterday
Such a million miles away
Oh honey, now I sat down
I fought the fools I'd tooken to that day
But all yesterday
Such a million miles away

I lied down...

Rivers of fortune
Lead us to bright light

Now honey I sat down
I fought the fools I'd tooken to that day
But all yesterday
Such a million miles away...

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.
