Grasp Lyrics

You look for love
Though eyes of strangers
Pitiful you go away
I think it's time to reconsider
In suspense you stay

I think my mind is slippin'
Know I'm trippin' feels like I am
Losing myself

I wish I held your live from dreaming
(soul I wish I had life)
I wish I held your live from dreaming
(soul I wish I had life)

In your mind
You're my puppet
I hope the strings
Give way in confused
Depths of realit
I wonder if you'll stay
I think my mind is slippin'
Know I'm trippin' feels like
I am Losing myself
I wish I held your live from dreaming
(soul I wish I had life)
I wish I held your live from dreaming
(soul I wish I had life

I own your dreams
In time, you'll see

I think my mind is slippin'
Know I'm trippin' feels like I am
Losing myself
I wish I held your live from
dreaming (soul I wish I had life)
I wish I held your live from dreaming
God damn I wish -- I'm dreaming

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.

I think that "Grasp" is about having a friend in your life who's going through tough times. So you try to help this person out, but eventually, you're living and breathing for this person, or in this case, dreaming. This causes commotion in the friendship, and you're trying to hold on to this person, but they keep on taking, or something like that.

I think it's about someon who thinks that his/her friend has control over them, and that person wishes it was true, but it isn't.

I agree with dgwilson, the song is about having a kind of master/puppet relationship with a friend or a loved one, and it's in spite of anothers pain that you go through all of this for them.

I love the way this song starts out, Morgan is an amazing drummer.

all i need to say is that this song means a lot to me and the lyrics : "in your mind/ youre my puppet/ i hope the strings/ give way in confused/ depths of reality" haunt me, they are so relevant in my life.
