Get Along [*] Lyrics

sounds so wrong but i need to fake the will to get along
feels alright when i drink to blur the day into the night
and blustery nights in through the rain
it's all aone that i am singing this anguish to you
and you're to blame
i'm still the same, i'm still the same

sounds so wrong but i need to fake the will to get along
feels alright when i drink to blur the day into the night
in lovely hour and in the room it's into bloom
that i have called your flower for me
and i'm to blame
you're still the same, you're still the same

raise up girl and be glad you were not born a man
up girl and be glad you were not born a man

sounds so wrong but i need to fake the will to get along
sounds so wrong but i need to fake the will to get along
and like a star that i have chosen for me
and i have placed one eye on the sky
the sky's the same
the moon's to blame, the moon's to blame

raise up girl and be glad you were not born a man
up man and be glad you were not born a god
sounds so wrong but i need to fake the will to get along
(repeat until end)

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.
