You Gave Me Life Lyrics

I hear the cry of that day
Ring in my ears as if you'd say
Son I've got to go away
I can no longer bear this pain

And I never thought I'd be alone today
You gave me life and you ran away
You gave me life
And ran away

So much more for me to learn
Your wisdom speaks and people turn
Sometimes my anger burns
My anger burns

And I never thought I'd be alone today
You gave me life and you ran away
You gave me life
You gave me life... And ran away

And you never think your life will change this way
A horror film could take its place
You gave me life...

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.
