Help Me Shoot This Apple Off My Head Lyrics

Help me shoot this apple off my head
Help me shoot this apple off instead…
Houses and houses anywhere, everywhere…
Sunlight all over my clothes it can be so wrong just waiting here…

I’d like more light
I’d like more light
I’d like more light
I’d like more light

But does no one understand it

Streets peopled with that matching worn face
No one wants a heart that’s buried with hate
Help me see some other side…

I’d like more light
I’d like more light

…help me shoot this apple off my head
Help me shoot this apple off instead…
Sunlight all over my shoes it can be so long before anything goes…

Rows and rows and rows of houses everywhere
I’d like more light
Help me shoot this apple off my head
I’d like more light

I’d like more light
I’d like more light
I’d like more light
I’d like more light

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.
