Almost Said Yes Lyrics

I hold the knife
The butter's on it
That's what it's for
I watch the pot
The water in it
Boils over
Another night to bitch, it's over

I took the time
The guilt has taught me
How to cherish
You should meet me out
I'll teach you how to
Be embarrassed
You really should be embarrassed

I don't want to scare the room
I'll rip into the family curse
I admit it scares me too
I can't believe I almost said yes
I can't believe I almost said yes

I'll beat this or die

Cut up all the pictures, don't deny
Just let your ghosts go
Cut up all the pictures, don't deny
Just let your ghosts go for me

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.
