On the Floor Lyrics

Just one last exploration
Let's sit right down and watch it fade
Tonight, is going nowhere

Lift me off the concrete, save me

Please, put me back down on the floor
And run me right over
Take this, explain it
Nothing seems to make sense anymore
Anymore

I am dying for a sign
What's been running through your mind?
Don't just smile at me and act like it's ok

Why can't we be never-ending?

Please, put me back down on the floor
And run me right over
Take this, explain it
Nothing seems to make sense anymore
Anymore

Just tell me where it is you want to go
And if I let down then I won't let it show
And if it's over then why can't you say so?

Please, put me back down on the floor
And run me right over
Take this, explain it
Nothing seems to make sense anymore
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.

I absolutely love the bridges in this song and how they are sung one syllable at a time. Another catchy song
