My Own Good Lyrics

lock me up throw away the key forever
i will not always be tethered
to a cloud that's just about
to drown you in weather
so lock me up throw away the key forever
i will not always be tethered
to a cloud that's just about
to drown you in weather

it might be for my own good
if i don't do what i should
it might be for your own good
if you don't do what you should
it might be for my own good
if i don't do what i should
it might be for your own good
if you don't do what you should

i had enough time to think it over
it's a cryptic twisted order
on the grounds it wasn't found
i called off the searches
so lock me up throw away the key forever
i will not always be tethered
to a cloud that's just about
to drown you in weather

it might be for my own good
if i don't do what i should
it might be for your own good
if you don't do what you should
it might be for my own good
if i don't do what i should
it might be for your own good
if you don't do what you should
it might be for my own good
if i don't do what i should
it might be for your own good
if you don't do what you should

lock me up throw away the key forever
i will not always be tethered
to a cloud that's just about
to drown you in weather
so lock me up throw away the key forever
i will not always be tethered
to a cloud that's just about
to drown you in weather

it might be for my own good
if i don't do what i should
it might be for your own good
if you don't do what you should
it might be for my own good
if i don't do what i should
it might be for your own good
if you don't do what you should

i had enough time to think it over

so lock me up throw away the key forever
i will not always be tethered
to a cloud that's just about

if you don't do what you should
it might be for my own good
if i don't do what i should
it might be for your own good
if you don't do what you should

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.
