Back Up Lyrics

Just say the word and I'll throw it all in
cause I can't keep up with your pace
Running and running and chasing and chasing
I'm falling flat on my face
why do I listen she's making up rules
that end before they begin
but I'm getting out and going my way
because I see that nobody wins
back up I'm not about to quit
back up I can't get over it
back up yeah

Stop all your teasing and give me a reason
for leading me on all the time
for I have a gun and I'm starting to run
from the deepest points in my mind
why do I listen she's making up rules
that end before they begin
but I'm getting out and going my way
because I see that nobody wins
back up I'm not about to quit
back up I can't get over it
back up yeah

Just say the word and I'll throw it all in
cause I can't keep up with your pace
Running and running and chasing and chasing
I'm falling flat on my face
why do I listen she's making up rules
that end before they begin
but I'm getting out and going my way
because I see that nobody wins
back up I'm not about to quit
back up I can't get over it
back up yeah

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.
