Things I Don't Know Lyrics

i sing you in ways you'll never hear
i am a christian on sundays
i am looking for ears
if i could turn turn one hundred souls
i could turn one
but i don't
there are things i don't know
is my claim just piss in the snow
this is the air between novice
when never go out that close

things i don't know

i sing you in houses
with the television on
about kickin the sunset down
or just following the sun
and the guilty they'll love you
boys will be boys
and they will gaze on
but i don't
there are things i don't know
is my claim just piss in the snow
this is the air between novice
when never go out that close

how does it feel
oh how does it feel
to be sung in songs
how does it feel
oh how does it feel
to be sung in songs about kickin the sunset down
is this pissin you off

i sing you in songs
i sing you in songs
and you held my hand
string me along
i sing you in songs
i sing you in songs
and you held my hand
you held my hand
and you string me along
you string me along
but i sing you in songs
oh i sing you in songs
and you held my hand
oh you held my hand
oh you held my hand
string me along

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.
