Stay Lyrics

Sounds like silence taking me over
Looks like darkness over my shoulder
Feels like numbness leaving me colder
When I leave you,
when I leave you...

And if I could stay away, I would..
trying to say the words I should..
And if I could stay away, I would.
I'm back to the place where love once stood.

It's like falling without you behind me
It's like calling but you'll never find me
It's all my fault, I need you this blindly
And I need you,
and I need you...

And if I could stay away, I would..
trying to say the words I should..
And if I could stay away, I would.
I'm back to the place where love once stood..
one stood.

Sounds like silence taking me over...

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.
