What If I'm Wrong Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Feelings that everyone's livin'
To a different kinda wall
I feel nano sense skipping
Tangled up in my own thoughts
'Harley on', they're just rainin'
Rest their motto, "Wha' we got?"
Try to look into the mirror
Scared of what I may find out

[Pre-Chorus]
I must believe
I must bel-ie-ve
I need to live
Not just exist

[Chorus]
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
Wha' did I know
What if I'm wrong

[Verse 2]
Why must these 'specials', have feelings
Why must I live in inside
I wrestle with my raging ailing
Lately, I have lost my fire

[Pre-Chorus]
I must believe
I must bel-ie-ve
I need to live
Not just exist

[Chorus]
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
What did I know
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
Hold-a my hand
Is the water so cold?
What if I'm wrong
Is the water so warm?
It's all that I know
What have we sold?
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong

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.
