Phantoms Lyrics

I wasn't trying to see
But I was looking around
I wasn't trying to see
But I was looking around
I try to uphold what tears me up from inside
I am all and still I fail
When everything falls apart
Your words of disdain prevails
We're all like hollow phantoms
In a pitiful state where numbness is a fate

All my pain through all of my life
My heart is cold

I wasn't trying to hide
But I was dying inside
I wasn't trying to hide
But I was dying inside
This uncertainty is killing me
It's burning like a thousand knives
Carved upon my chest
I am useless and emozionless
I will separate from what I know best
We're all like hollow phantoms
In a pitiful state where numbness is a fate

All my pain through all of my life
My heart is cold

This uncertainty is killing me
Burning like a thousand lights of disarray
I need power to rise again
A new way out of the ashes
And now I'm facing the repercussion
Of all the dead ends in my choices
I travel the distance for acceptance
And somehow I rejoice the end of my life

All my pain through all of my life
My heart is cold

I Get What I See

I wasn't trying to see
But I was looking around
I wasn't trying to see
But I was looking around
I try to uphold what tears me up from inside
I am all and still I fail
When everything falls apart
Your words of disdain prevails
We're all like hollow phantoms
In a pitiful state where numbness is a fate

All my pain through all of my life
My heart is cold

I wasn't trying to hide 
But I was dying inside 
I wasn't trying to hide 
But I was dying inside 
This uncertainty is killing me
It's burning like a thousand knives
Carved upon my chest
I am useless and emozionless
I will separate from what I know best
We're all like hollow phantoms
In a pitiful state where numbness is a fate

All my pain through all of my life
My heart is cold

This uncertainty is killing me
Burning like a thousand lights of disarray
I need power to rise again
A new way out of the ashes
And now I'm facing the repercussion
Of all the dead ends in my choices
I travel the distance for acceptance
And somehow I rejoice the end of my life

All my pain through all of my life
My heart is cold

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.
