Souvenir Lyrics

Hey, hey I'm all out, I'm all out
Hey, hey I'm worn out, I'm worn out
Hey, hey I'm all out, I'm all out
Hey, hey, I fall down, I fall down

Sick and tired of ruining my life for you
I'll stick around here one more night for you
Keep me near
Before I go we take a souvenir
We are now thieves
We are stealing memories of something not now ours and nothing left between
But I'll keep you near if only for a souvenir

Hey, hey I'm all out, I'm all out

Oohh ooohh

Made up minds hesitate tonight for you
I think i got the nerve for one more more lie to you
Before one of us disappears
Send me back to sleep with familiarity
Of the person I will grieve when you're not here with me
So need you here, if only for a souvenir

Hey, hey I'm worn out, I'm worn out

Take a souvenir before you go
Take a souvenir before you go
Take a souvenir before you go
Take a souvenir before you go

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.

Cover art for Souvenir lyrics by Ting Tings, The

by Sophocles65

Love the emotional energy of this track, even if it's rather dark and sad. It's feels like a rumination on being in a situation you know is not working but you fear that leaving it would be worse.
