The Scrap Poet Lyrics

I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
like it matters now you're free, its lost its hold on me

Please tell me what I want to hear
wake up, wake up!
your moment's here
Please tell me what I want to hear

So what happens now?
be honest with yourself
where do I fit in?
don't look back, don't look back now
I feel like I've been caught under dressed
the unimpressive me, oh the unimpressive me
if I start going through the motions what will be left?

Please tell me what I want to hear
don't give up right now, you're better off without it

What happens now?
what's happening, what's happening?
where am I, why is he still here
who's here?
just tell me what I want to hear

Please tell me what I want to hear
don't give up right now
please tell me what I want to hear
because it's over now
it's over 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.
