Tread Carefully Lyrics

I will come away at the seams
Take hold of everything I can reach

Nobody told me
We'd be dancing in the dark
Retracing footsteps
Trying to make my mark

As we all unfold
Slowly things spin out of control
Tread carefully
There're pieces of me I'm still looking for

Now they say there's not enough to go 'round
No space for my two feet
To touch the ground

You say it's easy,
'Give everyone there space
And orderly queue
Don't step out of place'

As we all unfold
Slowly things spin out of control
Tread carefully
There's pieces of me I'm still looking for
Still looking for

(Still looking for)
(Still looking for)
(Still looking for)
(Still looking for)
(Still looking for)

I will come away at the seams
At the seams
At the seams

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.
