Know It All Lyrics

I came home as someone else
Must have wished it on myself
When I got
Lost in thought
While we were out
Hours have passed and I have seen
The terror I am stuck between
Who I've been
And who I'm thinking
I could be
I was listening to battle begin
Wondering which side would win
Did you say
Something I'm
Sorry I
Apologize
I can tell
After this there's nothing else
Nothing you can't solve
If you're such a know it all
Maybe I'm not good enough
Or you don't resemble what I've built up
After months
See it
Looming over us
Tell me I made some mistake
Entertaining a second date
I'm a mess
So nervous and it's
Getting late
What should I do
I'll tell you
Pretty soon
I'll shatter in two
Just because
You place something high enough
The harder it can fall
But you knew that.
You're a know it all.

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.
