Mistake Lyrics

My TV has more channels than I need
My guitar has fewer strings by far
When I’m not watching you
Think you’re watching me
When I’m not watching you
Are you watching me?
What kind of disease makes you mistake
Your friends for your enemies?
What kind of disease makes you mistake
Your friends for your enemies?
My hometown has its ups and downs
My best friend just turned on again
Make me lonelier past becoming slow
Make me lonelier where did they all go?
What kind of disease makes you mistake
Your friends for your enemies?
What kind of disease makes you mistake
Your friends for your enemies?
Your old friend is on the loose again
No friend now
When I give up on you
Did you give up on me?
Was our past untrue
Why did you give up?
What kind of disease makes you mistake
What kind of disease makes you mistake

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.
