Surrender Lyrics

When i was young, times were tough
And they said, it makes you stronger
Suffocate, in my sheets
Turning blue on the tv
But i don't believe in much
No, i don't believe in much
No, i don't believe in much
Sitting still, in a frame
It's the pa, that i remember
Please be kind, and give your shirt
To the man and he'll surrender
But i don't believe in much
No, i don't believe in much
No, i don't believe in much
Til i want to sing
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Should have known, they'd be right
Should have known, that i'm a mistake
Should have seen, the holy ghost
But not for me, no it's for your sake
And i don't believe in much
No, i don't believe in much
No, i don't believe in much
Til i want to sing
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la

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.
