Everyone Knows Lyrics

I know that people talk
Don't tell me what they say
It used to get to me
But I won' change my ways

As time goes by
I won't ever learn
And i don't care
If everyone knows

Nobody understands cuz we don't play by the rules
I can't imagine why they care 'bout what we do
When all that's real is the way we feel
And I don't care if everyone knows

Just when I'm sure no one sees what I see
I realize that there's still you and me
You know I am there for you
I'll always care for you

I see 'em stare at us whenever we're together
They haven't got the right just cuz we're wearin' leather
If your alright and I'm alright
Then I don't care if everyone knows

If it feels this strong
It can't be wrong
And I don't care
If everyone knows

People get scared cuz they think we are freaks
But they will never bring me to my knees
You know I am there for you
I'll always care for you

If you're all right and I'm all right
Everyone knows
If you're all right and I'm all right
Everyone knows
If you're all right and I'm all right
Everyone knows

I know that people talk 
Don't tell me what they say
It used to get to me 
But I won' change my ways

As time goes by 
I won't ever learn
And i don't care
If everyone knows

Nobody understands cuz we don't play by the rules
I can't imagine why they care 'bout what we do
When all that's real is the way we feel
And I don't care if everyone knows

Just when I'm sure no one sees what I see
I realize that there's still you and me
You know I am there for you
I'll always care for you

I see 'em stare at us whenever we're together
They haven't got the right just cuz we're wearin' leather
If your alright and I'm alright
Then I don't care if everyone knows

If it feels this strong 
It can't be wrong 
And I don't care 
If everyone knows

People get scared cuz they think we are freaks
But they will never bring me to my knees
You know I am there for you 
I'll always care for you

If you're all right and I'm all right
Everyone knows
If you're all right and I'm all right
Everyone knows
If you're all right and I'm all right
Everyone knows

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.
