The Mexican Lyrics

You say that you need love
just like a kid on crack
i got feeling that what you want
is kind of holding you back

you say you can't find your feet
under the morning sun
i got a feeling that what you are
might just be blowing away your mind

thought i was talking about a new religion
waiting on the outside lost in the fog
i was only dreaming 'bout a revolution
waiting for the right time and watching the clock

you say that you need love
just like a kid on crack
i got feeling that what you want
is kind of holding you back

you say you can't feel the heat
behind a setting sun
i got a feeling that what you are
might just be blowing away your mind

thought i was talking about a new religion
waiting on the outside lost in the fog
i was only dreaming 'bout a revolution
waiting for the right time and watching the clock

thought i was talking about a new religion
waiting on the outside lost in the fog
i was only dreaming 'bout a revolution
waiting for the right time and watching the clock

thought i was talking about a new religion
waiting on the outside lost in the fog
i was only dreaming 'bout a revolution
waiting for the right time and watching the clock

The Death Of You And Me

You say that you need love
just like a kid on crack
i got feeling that what you want
is kind of holding you back

you say you can't find your feet
under the morning sun
i got a feeling that what you are
might just be blowing away your mind

thought i was talking about a new religion
waiting on the outside lost in the fog
i was only dreaming 'bout a revolution
waiting for the right time and watching the clock

you say that you need love
just like a kid on crack
i got feeling that what you want
is kind of holding you back

you say you can't feel the heat
behind a setting sun
i got a feeling that what you are
might just be blowing away your mind

thought i was talking about a new religion
waiting on the outside lost in the fog
i was only dreaming 'bout a revolution
waiting for the right time and watching the clock

thought i was talking about a new religion
waiting on the outside lost in the fog
i was only dreaming 'bout a revolution
waiting for the right time and watching the clock

thought i was talking about a new religion
waiting on the outside lost in the fog
i was only dreaming 'bout a revolution
waiting for the right time and watching the clock

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.
