23 Lyrics

I'm breathing the air
The air I always breathe
I don't have a lot
I want someone to share it with me
I really only want a few things
They've all been taken away
I just want to feel okay
I'm searching forever
For someone or something
I want to be high
And I want someone to love me
I've spent 23 years now
Trying to get by
Other people make it day to day
I still wonder why
I really only had a few things
They've all turned to tears
One tried to kill me
The other kept me here
I'm still here

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.

oh my god...i don't mean to be all cliche, but it's like they ripped open my chest and spelled out exactly what i feel day to day, and yes, i do really realize how cheesy i just sounded....

I know this song was about 6 years old at the time, but I can relate this song to my 23rd year. Although I won't go into it here, it and the year after were absolutely horrific.
