Yes I Am Lyrics

I'm discouraged by the situation - yes I am
I'm bewildered by your explanation - yes I am
Did you know? Was it right? Was it wrong? Hm' hm' hm'
If you think that I'm dejected, well I am - yes I am

I'm the target of your ammunition, yes I am
And I'm torn and riddled with suspicion, yes I am
Do you know? Is it good? Is it bad? Hm' hm' hm'
If you think that I'm offended, well I am - yes I am

Isn't it like long ago?
Playing children's games - catch a liar by the toe
If he hollers, let him go
Then you'll never have to know - never have to know

I'm embarrassed by your reputation - yes I am
And I'm fearful of your desperation - yes I am
Is it true? Is it false? Is it true? Who, who, who?
If you think I'm unconverted, well I am - yes I am

I'm astounded by your circumvention - yes I am
I'm insulted by your condescension - yes I am
Is it fair? Is it foul? Will it play? Hey! Hey! Hey!
If you think I'm disaffected, well I am - yes I am

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.
