I Want to Know Lyrics

Let's go
Ta, ta ta ta [8x]

And I, I tried to sing for you
I tried to live for you
I tried to keep the truth
Oh yeah, I, I failed to sing for you
I failed to live for you
I failed to keep the truth

[2x]
I want to know
(People look at him and think that)
I want to see
(he will live his life so perfectly but what they don't know)
I want to be with you when I am weak
(is he wants to die
Because the only reason why you think his life is clear
Is because he knows that we will never understand)

I tried to sing for you
I tried to live for you
I tried to keep the truth
But I failed to sing for you
I failed to live for you

I want to know
I want to see
I want to be with you
When I am weak

I want to know
(People look at him and think that)
I want to see
(he will live his life so perfectly but what they don't know)
I want to be with you when I am weak
(is he wants to die
Because the only reason why you think his life is clear
Is because he knows that we will never understand)

Again? Sure.

I want to know
I want to see
I want to be with you
When I am weak

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.
