Under Lyrics

Fallin' down under the cracks
And now, I cannot make a sound
Forgive me if I ask for help
I'm crawling out of the bottom where my every thought
My every thought is consuming
Gimme some excuses, I need to know

If I was under, could I see myself on the floor?
If I should trip inside my mind
Would I be under control of it all?

Time, gimme time, gimme time, gimme

What do you think will help me?
My teeth, chatterin' with every thought
I need some prayers to be answered
I believe I'll be choking on my mind soon
Why won't you help me?
One more time, I expect to get shit

Gimme some excuses
You don't give a fuck

If I was under, could I see myself on the floor?
If I should trip inside my mind
Would I be under control of it all?

Help me
Help me

If I was under, could I see myself on the floor?
If I should trip inside my mind
Would I be under control of it all, control of it all?

Help me
I'm under

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.

wow no comments? i think this is one of the best songs on alpha, which is a great cd. slower than a lot of the cd, but great lyrics and sweet riff. awesome vocals by lajon like usual.
