The Reason Why Lyrics

Senselessly waiting on
This hope I'm hanging on.
Things I might never have to say.
Seems to go on & on.
This note that I linger on
Can put a feeling to this shame of great.
You're lying right next to me.
Trying so hard to be
Something that I need,
Something I needed.
You're lying makes sense to me.
Trying what's left of me.
I know the reason, I know the reason why.
Restless you seem to be,
For things you may never see.
Now I might never be the same.
You feel it when I'm gone.
You can't put your finger on
Uneasy feeling as I fade away.
You're lying right next to me.
Trying so hard to be
Something that I need,
Something I needed.
You're lying makes sense to me.
Trying what's left of me.
I know the reason, I know the reason why.
You're lying right next to me.
Trying so hard to be
Something that I need,
Something I needed.
You're lying makes sense to me.
Trying what's left of me.
I know the reason, I know the reason why.

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.
