Never Been Sadder Lyrics

I've never been sadder
Never been more sad
Feel like the beginning
Of something real bad
I've tried to be good
Good as I could be
I wanted to be free
And now I am alone
There are no strings on me
Just this noose around my neck
The other one is in the tree
Where the cradle used to rock
The bough has broken
The branch burned in the fire
These embers long ago
Have turned to light
The soap I tried to make
It wouldn't wash away
The dirty feeling
Like I made a big mistake
But I'm not gonna jump
I'll keep my feet on the ground
Gonna paint my face up
Like a circus clown

Latidadadada

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.
