Miranda Lyrics

Help me out Miranda, you left me hanging again
We just let each other down to let each other back in

How can you say to me that it's not meant to be?
How can you say to me it's not meant to be?

I could never leave you so I followed you into
Cities where our harmony was splintered into two

How can you tell me, you tell me it's not true?
How can you say to me it's not meant to be?

If anyone's to blame
Then let me know their name
No room left to believe
For love to intercede
No room for make-believe
Ah-oh, wah-oh

Miranda
Miranda
Miranda

If I could just hold your hand you'd understand completely
Feel I've lost my best friend, don't know where to begin

What should I say to you to make you think it through?
How can you say to me it's not meant to be?
Oh...

So please just let me be
Or make it known to me
Miranda, I can't tell
Which demons to expel
[God figures](?) everywhere you stare
Wah-oh

Miranda
Miranda
Miranda

Oh...

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.

nicely done, i think you pretty much nailed it. to me, it sounds like he says "Which [demons] to expel", and i agree that [God figures] is the best guess for the next line. it might be "or make it known to me" before that, but "make it up to me" sounds equally good.

thanks for submitting this! again, good work.

i think there's a chance the [god figures] bit might possibly be "got demons"

so it'd be "got demons everywhere you stare"

just a thought(:
