Procrastinating Lyrics

So here i am it's 3a.m
I don't know where to begin
Time's running out and
There's no doubt that i feel
Like throwing in the towel
With no way I can get this
Start finished
So i'm a day late at least
A buck short I've got no
Chance to make this on
My own I don't have it made I'm
Nowhere near the shade will
You step in this life and take
Control
Show me the way I know
That slow and steady wins
The race but slow to me
'cause i can't see is like a
Lightning pace and all i
Get is nowhere constantly
Waiting Are you still
There and do you care about
What i'm feeling now I'd like
To see what i could be
Without this holding me
Down but I'm too scared of
Taking this chance and
Failing I'm always waiting
Procrastinating i feel so
Useless on my own You're
Always waiting just in time
To save me I'm not so useless
I'm not alone so here i am
It's 3a.m. No better time to
Begin

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.

Umm these are wrong... Everywhere I look for lyrics they miss this after it says

Time's running out and There's no doubt that i feel Like throwing in the towel With no way I can get this Start finished

After that it says something like " I try and try and wonder why the answers never come..."

Melanie* is right. This is a great song and I love it. It is so true for many of us. The corrected lyrics lyrics are as follows...

So here i am it's 3a.m I don't know where to begin Time's running out and There's no doubt that i feel Like throwing in the towel With no way I can get this Start finished I try and try and wonder why the answers never come cause this is it i'm tired and sick of always feeling undone I've tried it all but there is still something missing So i'm a day late at least A buck short I've got no Chance to make this on My own I don't have it made I'm Nowhere near the shade will You step in this life and take Control Show me the way I know That slow and steady wins The race but slow to me 'cause i can't see is like a Lightning pace and all i Get is nowhere constantly Waiting Are you still There and do you care about What i'm feeling now I'd like To see what i could be Without this holding me Down but I'm too scared of Taking this chance and Failing So i'm a day late at least A buck short I've got no Chance to make this on My own I don't have it made I'm Nowhere near the shade will You step in this life and take Control I'm always waiting Procrastinating i feel so Useless on my own You're Always waiting just in time To save me I'm not so useless I'm not alone so here i am It's 3a.m. No better time to Begin So i'm a day late at least A buck short I've got no Chance to make this on My own I don't have it made I'm Nowhere near the shade will You step in this life and take Control Take Control.
