Reach Out Lyrics

Reach out
Like a mountain I can't climb
Like a river I can't cross
I beat my head against the wall
The obstacles before me are so tall
I'm trying to reach you
I'm trying to reach out
I'm trying to reach out
Wanting to be with you
Will I measure up?
What am I supposed to do?
I've never felt this way
These are my darkest days
I feel so far away
Away!
A life of perfection
Constant reflection of what I'll never be
Smothered by your love
Safe in your embrace
Unending devotion
The memory of your face now I know
Now I know me
So, I'm reaching out and I'm hold on
And I'm trying things I had left behind
Reach out

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.
