When I Was Dumb Lyrics

When I was dumb my thoughts were too
I didn't think that I loved you
When I was dumb
When I was dumb I broke your heart
I was thinking I was smart
When I was dumb

Now I wish you knew how much I learned
Thinking bout those bridges that I burned
When I was Dumb
And I wish I knew how wrong I was
When I didn't think about them just because
I was so dumb

When I was dumb my heart was too
It didn't know it belonged to you
When I was dumb

When I as dumb I didn't know
How soon I would regret I let you go
When I was dumb

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.
