Anchor Lyrics

I'm in the water leave me here
with an anchor in my hand
I'm in the water leave me here
with an anchor in my hand
I have heard it enough to walk away
I am cold and alone
I have seen it enough to look away
I am cold and lonely
Dropped! Over the edge help pull me up
I am in over my head
Over the edge help pull me up
I am in over my head
It has been long enough to rip away
I can't on my own
If I leave this for you to understand
I am damned

It's not that I don't believe
It's not that I don't want to see
Exactly who I am
You think I'm colder
I'm harder than steel
You're wrong

Leave it hidden still I see out
of the corner of my eye
Seal it shut leave it on the shelf for me to pick up
on my way out on my down and
It has been long enough to rip away
I can't on my own
If I leave this for you to understand
I am damned

The dark lines
Beneath my eyes
Will fade but won't spread
You say I'm harder than steel
Steel you're 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.
