How It Goes Lyrics

Sit back and listen to me
Cause baby that's just the way it'll be
And you're alone again
Time's changed but you're still the same
While everything else is rearranged
I hate how long it's been

So let's just be honest

Here's how it goes
Tell me the things I need to know
Come clean to me
Here's how it goes
Tell me the things I need to know
Confessions breathe

I saw from the look in your eyes
The little bit of honesty that you've kept inside
And I'm not finished yet
These things that you tried to hide
All your backstabbing and all of your lies
The things that you regret

Come clean to me
Confessions breathe
Come clean to me
Confessions breathe

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.
