Chin Up Lyrics

It catches up with me-
Soften the blow
Already spread thin
I promise I'm fine
because time never passes for me there in the dark
A shadow of your former self there in the light
And oh, the one thing you are good at is wasting your love
In a cold bed you can say you were never there
The one thing that turns you in your grave
In a cold bed I can say I was never there
This will bury me, oh this will bury me
It catches up with me
Soften the blow
Already spread thin
I promise I'm lying
Because time never passes for me there in the dark
A shadow of your former self there in the light
And oh, the one thing I am good at is wasting my love
I need you right now
I need you right now
I need you right now
I need you right now
I need you right now
I need you right now
I need you I need you I need you
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.
