Here Before Lyrics

Oh, what a gray and hopeless day
I've got a worried mind
The sun's behind the clouds again
And so am I
I ask the sky
Tell me which way to go, how will I know to shine again?

I've been here before, I've seen it all
And I can't take no more, I mean it
I'll go

And this is the time, the time to change my life
Yeah these are the times reaching up to find

A window out of doom and doubt
A remedy for agony or ???

I've been here before, I've seen it all
And I can't take no more, I mean it
I'll go
You heard it all and more, I beat it and took hold

And these are the times, time to change my life
Yeah these are the times reaching up to find

Whoa-oh-oh-oh
I took the wrong way home
Whoa-oh-oh
I took the wrong way home
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh
I took the wrong way home
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh

I've been here before, I've seen it all
I can't take no more, I mean it
I'll go
What's this screaming for?

And this is the time, the time to change my life
Yeah these are the times, reaching up to find
Reaching up to find
Reaching up to find
Reaching up
Reaching up
Reaching up

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.

It should be 'A remedy for agony, Oh hush that shout' and instead of 'I beat it and took hold', 'Heart beating too hard'. I think.

I love this song though, it's amazing.
