The Usual Results Lyrics

She said:
Okay I'm sorry I know I'm not perfect all the time
But take a look in the mirror
I'm not the one who's breaking promises

Failed to not accomplish all that
Which that I had tried
But take a look in the mirror
I'm not the one who's breaking promises

Look at us now
This isn't how we wanted us to turn out
Relationships fall like leaves from a tree
I tried to make you believe but you're reluctant right now

I'm getting weaker
I'm going nowhere
Fading out slowing just like a movie would
I called you last night
With the usual result

Look at us now
This isn't how we wanted us to turn out
Relationships fall like leaves from a tree
I tried to make you believe but you're reluctant right now

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.
