Shook Down Lyrics

To collapse in a sugar cane
Suck it sweet to kill the pain
There was someoene i was looking for
There is no more
My tongue is weak from a kick or two
The word is dry, I think of you
Tie my face to the back of a jet
To keep my essence there

And its been a week
And its been a week too long
There are several things that i've been doing wrong
You see the time it takes for you
Is the time it takes for me
So don't agree

If it's late then I will go
Turn the lights out, turn it slow
Like you turned me upside down
And faced the ground
Spinnin' left I spin at you
Listen girl I think of you
Back up by the back of the chair
I left you there

And its been a week
And its been a week too long
There are several things that i've been doing wrong
You see the time it takes for you
Is the time it takes for me
So don't agree

You can be my destiny
You can mean that much to me
You can be my destiny
You can mean that much to me
You can be my destiny
You can mean that much to me
You can be my destiny
You can mean that much to me
You can be my destiny

To collapse in a sugar cane
Suck it sweet to kill the pain
There was someoene i was looking for
There is no more
My tongue is weak from a kick or two
The word is dry, I think of you
Tie my face to the back of a jet 
To keep my essence there

And its been a week
And its been a week too long
There are several things that i've been doing wrong
You see the time it takes for you
Is the time it takes for me
So don't agree

If it's late then I will go
Turn the lights out, turn it slow
Like you turned me upside down
And faced the ground
Spinnin' left I spin at you
Listen girl I think of you
Back up by the back of the chair
I left you there

And its been a week
And its been a week too long
There are several things that i've been doing wrong
You see the time it takes for you
Is the time it takes for me
So don't agree

You can be my destiny
You can mean that much to me
You can be my destiny
You can mean that much to me
You can be my destiny
You can mean that much to me
You can be my destiny
You can mean that much to me
You can be my destiny

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.
