Damned Lyrics

Damned if you do
Damned if you don't
The people you knew ran off to the west coast
Everyone's watching in horror
It's just what they do
Everyone's watching in horror on your TV tonight

You're damned
I think you knew
You're damned
And if you know, then why don't you stand?
Why don't you stand?

Everyone's watching in horror
It's just what they do
Everyone's watching in horror on your TV tonight

You're damned
I think you knew
You're damned
And if you know

You speak of faith and forgiveness
All the while passing your judgment and cursing your enemies
You justify a means to an end
Not today, not while we want to maintain our dignity
You speak of faith and forgiveness
All the while passing your judgment and cursing your enemies
You justify a means to an end
Not today, not while we want to maintain our dignity
Everyone's watching in horror
It's just what they do
Everyone's watching in horror on your TV tonight

You're damned
I think you knew
You're damned
And if you know, then why don't you stand your ground?
Stand your ground
Stand your ground
Stand your ground

Let Me Down Easy

You Get Weary

You've Never Heard "My Aim Is True"

St. Peters

Damned if you do
Damned if you don't
The people you knew ran off to the west coast
Everyone's watching in horror
It's just what they do
Everyone's watching in horror on your TV tonight
 
You're damned
I think you knew
You're damned
And if you know, then why don't you stand?
Why don't you stand?

Everyone's watching in horror
It's just what they do
Everyone's watching in horror on your TV tonight
 
You're damned
I think you knew
You're damned
And if you know

You're damned
I think you knew
You're damned
And if you know, then why don't you stand your ground?
Stand your ground
Stand your ground
Stand your ground

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.
