Lost Kids Lyrics

How long can we pretend
That we know just who we are
Lost kids with nothing left
Throwing rocks into the dark

Outside, a street of fire
Broken glass and aching hearts
Petrified as we divide
Screaming out a war of words

We're not fighting to be heard
We just wanna watch you burn

Let it all come undone
Cut it down, down tonight

And I can't find my way
Already buried anyway
And I can't find my way
Already buried any, buried anyway

How long can we pretend
That we know just who we are
Lost kids with nothing left
Throwing rocks into the dark

Something here has gotta give,
But we'll never understand
The reason why we cannot hide
Is trembling in our hands

We're not not fighting to be heard
We just wanna watch you burn

Let it all come undone
Cut it down, down tonight

And I can't find my way
Already buried anyway
And I can't find my way
Already buried anyway

And we're tied up so tight
Another city in the night
And I can't find my way
Already buried any, buried anyway

And I can't find my way
Already buried anyway
And I can't find my way
Already buried anyway

And we're tied up so tight
Another city in the night
And I can't find my way
Already buried any, buried anyway

Say Something, Say Anything

How long can we pretend
That we know just who we are
Lost kids with nothing left
Throwing rocks into the dark

Outside, a street of fire
Broken glass and aching hearts
Petrified as we divide
Screaming out a war of words

We're not fighting to be heard
We just wanna watch you burn

Let it all come undone
Cut it down, down tonight

And I can't find my way
Already buried anyway
And I can't find my way
Already buried any, buried anyway

How long can we pretend
That we know just who we are
Lost kids with nothing left
Throwing rocks into the dark

Something here has gotta give,
But we'll never understand
The reason why we cannot hide
Is trembling in our hands

We're not not fighting to be heard
We just wanna watch you burn

Let it all come undone
Cut it down, down tonight

And I can't find my way
Already buried anyway
And I can't find my way
Already buried anyway

And we're tied up so tight
Another city in the night
And I can't find my way
Already buried any, buried anyway

And I can't find my way
Already buried anyway
And I can't find my way
Already buried anyway

And we're tied up so tight
Another city in the night
And I can't find my way
Already buried any, buried anyway

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.
