Master Plan Lyrics

empty bottle in these hands again tonight
you could never get it right
i am shattered to the core
from the saturday before
now to big for there is nothing left to say
except i wish we never met
big eyes big enough to see
you were not the one who's meant for me

i had a master plan for you
but you let me down
i am over it now
i am over it now
i had a master plan for you
but you let me down
i am over it now
i am over it now

diagrams and calculations had been made
this should last a long, long while
just a few things left to chance
nothing of significance
nothing i hate more than weakness
being feigned
by the girl who holds the reins
nothing i hate more than that
but the man who foiled my master plan

i had a master plan for you
but you let me down
i am over it now
i am over it now
i had a master plan for you
but you let me down
i am over it now
i am over it now

there's a fever in these cells again tonight
you will never get it right
pick myself up off the floor
i'm not shattered like i was before

i had a master plan for you
but you let me down
i am over it now
i am over it now
i had a master plan for you
but you let me down
i am over it now
i am over it now

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.

Good tune. I particularly like the live version from Maniatv that I found on Youtube. As for the meaning, sounds like she had plans for a guy, but things didn't work out.

The song would be funnier if it was "Plaster Man" instead.
