All Stressed Out Lyrics

Did you think that it'd be easy
To achieve your maximum potential now?
I'm all stressed out
One step forward
And eight steps back, you're goin' off the cliff
And out to sea
Or so it seems
I'm all stressed out
I don't know what to do
What to say
How to sleep
Can't compete
I got my shoes on the wrong feet
Now I'm all stressed out
Did you think that it'd be easy
To achieve your maximum potential now?
I'm all stressed out
Got courage under fire just like I should
But too afraid to walk through your neighborhood
And shout
Don't count me out

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.
