Calcutta Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am caught, tangled in
Wrapped and quartered
Tripping up and over
Time lived again
For just a moment
Missing pieces find me

[Pre-Chorus]
I sweat and I ache for
Your eyes and the way you breathe

[Chorus]
And I wake, saying your name
And I wake, saying your name

[Verse 2]
You are more than warm belief
Melting skywards
More than silence broken
I'm whole again
For just a moment
Till the morning comes

[Chorus]
And I wake, saying your name
And I wake, saying your name

[Bridge]
Oh, she said you'd better believe it
I said you don't know
Oh, you said you'd better believe it
I said you don't even know

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Time lived again for just a moment
Missing pieces find me
And I'm whole again for just a moment
Missing pieces find me
Time lived again for just a moment
(I sweat and I ache for)
Missing pieces find me
(I sweat and I ache for)
And I'm whole again, whole again
(I sweat and I ache for)
Whole again
(I sweat and)

[Instrumental Outro]

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.
