Day Go By Lyrics

Day go by
Day break can't wait for the night to fall
Can't sleep I'm wasted, wasted
Can't sleep make it to the dawn

By the way
I really need my fix cause you got me so sick
I know
That I'm burning for you
That I'm burning for you
That I'm burning for you

Don't call the doctor, doctor
God save the doctor, something's wrong
Gonna call the doctor, doctor
Gonna tell him that my pain is gone

Time away
Tearing me apart, I wear it on my heart, I do
Can't sleep, I'm wasted, wasted
Can't stand still, I'm shaking over you

Time away
I really need my fix cause you got me so sick
I know
That I'm burning for you
That I'm burning for you
That I'm burning for you

Don't call the doctor, doctor
God save the doctor, something's wrong
Gonna call the doctor, doctor
Just tell him that my pain is gone
It's gone gone gone gone

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.

Cover art for Day Go By lyrics by Karen O

She is looking back on someone that she lost that caused her a lot of pain, and sometimes she still yearns for him.

That is what I take from this beautiful song. When you shouldn’t miss someone but sometimes you still do.
