South Lyrics

Every step that I want to take I'm told to hurry up and wait,
Every time that I miss a break its just my luck,

As I hold hands with hope, fate lies right in front of me,
As my eyes have proven to show hope is hope and fate is destiny.

So dont say, dont say, we'll catch a break.
When things start heading south, you can watch her tear me down, and all that time she didn't show up...

Every time that she'd dissapear I'd hope for a whole new better year,
and all that time she didn't show up, its just my luck.

As I hold hands with hope, fate lies right in front of me,
As my eyes have proven to show hope is hope and fate is destiny.

So dont say, dont say, we'll catch a break.
When things start heading south, you can watch her tear me down, and all that time she didn't show up...

I'm waiting, anticipating.

So dont say, dont say, we'll catch a break.
When things start heading south, you can watch her tear me down, and all that time she didn't show up, it's just my luck.

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.

Amazing song! :] I think it's about waiting to gain more of an audience as artists, and about being frustrated with that. I think it's also about an unsatisfying relationship. I like this band's sound. :]

i think this song means that your always told to hurry up and be prepared for anything but you always have to wait to make it big, you're just waiting and you're getting pretty impatient
