Pound For Pound Lyrics

I know my body's not a perfect machine
I don't know how it keeps on working with me
'Cause if I'm going out I'm back after sunrise
If I'm going out I'm back after sunrise
If I'm going out I'm back after sunrise

I know my body's not a perfect machine
I'm just surprised that it endures this routine
'Cause if I'm going out I'm back after sunrise
If I'm going out I'm back after sunrise
If I'm going out I'm back after sunrise

I guess excessive is what you'd call it
The more I'm getting the more I want it
I shouldn't let this become a problem
But when I'm dead I suppose I'll stop it
But until then I want more

If I'm going out I'm back after sunrise

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.
