Denial Lyrics

Take all the time that's on your side
But I am, I am, I am
I'm a man with pride
I know the world is in your hands
I do, I do, I do
And I understand
Oh I do, but do you?

Please don't turn the light out
I don't think the conversation's over
Just don't shut your eyes closed
Not until I get it off my chest

You know that I can hear you thinking
I've heard you all the way from here
But if I look you in the eye though
It's like your thoughts all disappear
I know you're looking for direction
And I know, I know, I know
I know where you wanna' go
Oh I do, but do you?

Please don't turn the light out
I don't think the conversation's over
Just don't shut your eyes closed
Not until I get it off my chest

Have you turned a corner?
Do you think of leaving me behind?

[?]
Oh I do

Please don't turn the light out
I don't think the conversation's over
Just don't shut your eyes closed
Not until I get it off my chest

Have you turned a corner?
Do you think of leaving me behind?
Please don't turn the light out
I don't think the conversation's over

Take all the time that's on your side
But I am, I am, I am
I'm a man with pride
I know the world is in your hands
I do, I do, I do
And I understand
Oh I do, but do you?

Please don't turn the light out
I don't think the conversation's over
Just don't shut your eyes closed
Not until I get it off my chest

You know that I can hear you thinking
I've heard you all the way from here
But if I look you in the eye though
It's like your thoughts all disappear
I know you're looking for direction
And I know, I know, I know
I know where you wanna' go
Oh I do, but do you?

Please don't turn the light out
I don't think the conversation's over
Just don't shut your eyes closed
Not until I get it off my chest

Have you turned a corner?

Oh I do

Please don't turn the light out
I don't think the conversation's over
Just don't shut your eyes closed
Not until I get it off my chest

Have you turned a corner?
Do you think of leaving me behind?
Please don't turn the light out
I don't think the conversation's over

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.
