Where We're Going Lyrics

Part of getting old is feeling like part of you is left in time
Part of being young is knowing that all the parts of time are mine
Part of it is being careful
Most of it is never used
So basically, I want to know
Basically, I've got to know
(Where we're going)

Part of killing time is drinking
Part of having friends is lying
Part of making plans is quitting
Part of being smart is blind

Basically, I want to know
Basically, I've got to know
Basically, I want to know
Where we're going
Where we're going
Where we're going
Where we're going
Where we're going
Where we're going

Part of being here is seeing the parts that make our brains our minds
Part of loving god is killing
But all the change is only mine

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.
