Perhaps Lyrics

it seems to me perhaps, we're not on the same
page, cause everyday, i follow you to and fro,
but you don't follow me--because you don't look
for me.

i can't seem to find my way, inside of you.

now you got what you want, what you wanna
do?--now you got what you, i can't have you.

but i can try, and i can try--i can try, i can.

and the chase it all ends, and i don't know
where to begin, cause my feelings for you are
so strong, and i've had them for so long.

i can't seem to find my way, inside of you.

now you got what you want, what you wanna
do?--now you got what you, i can't have you.

but i can try, and i can try--i can try, i can.

and i want you, i need you--
i want you, i need you more.

i want you, i need you--
i want you, i need you more.

so it seems that everything's all straight--i
guess i'm in it for nothing, against each other
we're pitted; and now i feel so rejected.

i can't seem to find my way, inside of you.

i want you, i need you--
i want you, i need you more.

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.
