Photograph Lyrics

The picture lies, the picture will make cry.
I despise the pictures I have taken, I look at them my heart starts achin’.
I don’t want your photograph, I just want you.
I don’t want your photograph, I just want you.

Maybe I’m going insane, I want to board an astral plane,
And travel far and travel wide, and cross the spiritual divide.
I don’t want your photograph, I just want you.
I don’t want your photograph, I just want you.

Where will the chemicals take me?
Where will the chemicals take me?
Where will the chemicals take me?
Where will the chemicals take me today?

The picture lies, the picture will make cry.
I despise the pictures I have taken, I look at them my heart starts breakin’.
I don’t want your photograph, I just want you.
I don’t want your photograph, I just want you.
I don’t want your photograph, I just want you.
I don’t want your photograph, I just want you.

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.
