We Exchanged Words Lyrics

We exchanged words
Through smoke-filled mouths
And then we found our bodies
Speaking loud
And our hearts pressed against the flesh
Trading stories
Of love's pain
Doubt
And rivaling insecurities
When did we learn to speak without words?
And in tongues?
Maybe we should just stop here

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.

Oh. Speaking without words, and love's nothing but pain. So, why must we strive for it? It's only doubt filling our minds, of something we'll never have. Maybe we should stop here, maybe this ending isn't so bad. Maybe we're all just a bunch of lies telling ourselves that we are people. When people are just tiny spects on this earth, with no purpose in life but to live. But live how? Live with pain, and suffering, and dying love for a lover who has yet to love you back. When all you can do is breathe, and breathing still isn't enough to survive.

for some reason this song just reminds me of an emotional affair, exchanging words with someone you're in love with. they're listening to each other, sharing everything, loves pain. "maybe we should just stop here", because the both of you will be hurting more than just yourselves.
