Song Number Ten Lyrics

I'm sorry girl, I think I went and lost my mind
But I've been finding bits and pieces of it all of this time
And if you asked me now, I couldn't say I was fine
But I've been workin' at it day and night with you in mind

And it seems alright

I know you saw a sick side of me back then
But I saw my pain reflected and we've started to mend
I wrote this song in color cause I can feel again
And I just wanted to show you I'm trying to be your friend

I'm with ya til the end

A tiny little thought explodes inside my head
You're with me and you're memory is heavy as lead
I had to tell you somehow, and I'll sing til I'm dead
I'm just hoping you get it song soon, cause this is song number ten

All over again

We're adults now, babydoll, and we can take a hit
And I'll take a few for you bacause I gotta admit
You're all I ever see, it hasn't changed a bit
But I'm running out of melodramatic hits

And there's gotta be a time to quit

But this just isn't it

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.

There's lines missing after every verse. They are:

>

And it seems alright

And it seems alright

i>

I'm with ya til the end

I'm with ya til the end

i>

All over again

All over again

i>

And there's gotta be a time to quit

And there's gotta be a time to quit

But this just isn't it
