Take Over Me Lyrics

Must be tiring to meet my resistance
My stubborn will can be so twisted
Pride can steal the best from me
But it's not what I want
But You're what I need
So I surrender

I want You
To take over me
I want You
To take over me
I don't wanna be part of the resistance
I wanna be part of the release
So I want You to take over me

Oh, I can't survive a state of existence
Struggling to find what's missin'
I wanna win the war between these skin and bones
And what's underneath
So I surrender
Yeah, I surrender

I want You
To take over me
I want You
To take over me
I don't wanna be part of the resistance
I wanna be part of the release
So I want You to take over me, yeah

Never want to, never wanna be against You
Never meant to, never meant to resist You
I never want to, never want to be against You, against You
Oh, how could I resist You?!

So I want You
To take over me
I want You
To take over me
I don't wanna be part of the resistance
I wanna be part of the release
So I want You to take over me, yeah

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.
