My So-called Friend Lyrics

You always seemed to be there for me But somehow it seemed so superficial Some others said you had some bad to say And it hurts me to think that you felt that way So I guess in the end There's wool over my eyes You said that you cared You said that you did It turns out now that's a lie Well I'm not surprised Just left with tears in my eyes My so-called friend?! And so I don't understand Your thoughts and dreams Well they're secondhand But when will we end this game Your temperamental being is playing with fate My so-called friend?!

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.

Yeah. A realtionship just ended fer me on 4/20. The grrl was very untruthful, & I didn't even see it. Now that we're apart, she still lies to me. Oh well. That's why there are songs like these. So we look back on times related, & say "What the hell was I thinkin'?".
