Curbstomp Lyrics

I'm a sinner
I’m a liar
Want forgiveness
But I'm tired
I'm addicted to the fire
Let go, I'm ready for it
Let go, I’m ready

I'm a victim
I'm a coward
Try to wake up
Don't have the power
I'm a daughter in the choir
Let go, I'm ready for it
Let go, I'm ready

Oh Oh Oh Oh

I'm a shadow
I'm a creeper
Want forgiveness
Getting weaker
I'm addicted to the fever
Let go, I'm ready for it
Let go, I'm ready

I'm a danger
I'm a cipher
Try to wake up
No desire
I'm a daughter in the choir
Let go, I'm ready for it
Let go, I'm ready

Oh Oh Oh Oh

No no no eyes baby
No no no mind baby
No no no smile baby
No no no lies

Lay me down tonight
No lies
Lay me down tonight
Lay me down tonight
Lay me, lay me, lay me, lay me down tonight

Blood I want it
Giving up the fight
Blood I want it
Lay me down tonight
Blood i want it
Take me to the sky
Blood I want it
Everything's alright now

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.

I was wondering about this myself, it sounded like it could have been about suicide, seems I wasn't far wrong. Meg herself explains in an interview:

"Curbstomp is about death and dying. It’s about not being afraid to die, and just letting go. When the choruses kick in, it’s like, 'You’re dead.' It’s like what death feels like."

I love Meg, such powerful songs and music to match - one of the most original, unique and expressive artists to grace my speakers for a very long time.

Whatever life throws at you Meg, stay with us, we need you and your talented (if a little tortured) soul here on planet earth, you help keep me sane!
