I Kept My Promise...Barely Lyrics

Why must you make this so hard?
It's not like it's meant, you're who you are
Leave me alone...come and live nearer
I know there is great, the sky's clearer
You make me hate people I like
You make me tell lies each night
You make me nervously unsure of everything
But somehow it sends me reeling
Slip a compliment in there please
Just to put me on your knees
Listen to me, talking insane speak
It was just a stupid lonely week

I don't know what to think anymore

I am an awful specimen of life
She can't even feel me twisting the knife
I shouldn't even be talking about this
I didn't betray myself with a kiss

You are a wonderful human being Miss
You are wonderful
I am ashamed.
I don't know what to think anymore

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.
