Bent (Roi's Song) Lyrics

i saw you with a very lose grip on yr tight ship

and i left you with a very big mess then i watched it progress

took a little time for your trip but i saw you starting to slip

+ you always kept your eyes on any little hiding spot that u had forgot

i saw you after a decent spell in a private hell

and i told you i hope i live a thousand lives, and hope i live them well

fought my mind to keep my life, but my body’s putting up a tougher fight

yeah if it feels wrong, go on along

but once it feels right then YOU JUST LOST the FIGHT

——

i saw you with a very lose grip on yr tight ship

i lost you when you said one hit couldn’t hurt a bit

took a little time for your trip but i saw you starting to slip

cuz you always kept your eyes on any little hiding spot that u had forgot

i can’t shake the terror of my life fleeting, minute by minute,

even when i can’t imagine another day waking up in it

fought my mind to keep my life, but my body’s putting up a tougher fight

yeah if it feels wrong, go on along

but once it feels right then YOU JUST LOST the FIGHT

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.

[Verse 1] I saw you with a very loose grip on your tight ship And I left you with a very big mess then I watched it progress Took a little time for your trip but I saw you starting to slip And you always kept your eyes on any little hiding spot that you had forgot And I saw you after a decent spell in a private hell And I told you, "I hope I live a thousand lives, hope I live them well" Fought my mind to keep my life, but my body’s putting up a tougher fight Yeah if it feels wrong, you can go on along But once it feels right then you just lost the fight

[Verse 2]

I saw you with a very loose grip on your tight ship And I lost you when you said one hit couldn’t hurt a bit Took a little time for your trip but I saw you starting to slip Cause you always kept your eyes on any little hiding spot that you had forgot I can’t shake the terror of my life fleeting, minute by minute Even when I can’t imagine another day waking up in it Fought my mind to keep my life, but my body’s putting up a tougher fight Yeah if it feels wrong, you can go on along But once it feels right then you just lost the fight
