So Sadly It Goes Lyrics

What have we done to equality?
We've almost wiped out that word
Its Johnny-come-lately for mending up
For all the idea sounds absurd
I'm sorry, so sorry
I dont know what I've done
God help me-Please help me
Help me see the light
The taller you are the farther you fall
Before you make plans in advance
Set your objectives a smaller scale
This change just might improve your chance
Now as present turns to past
It looks gray and overcast
No, we're not in darkness yet
But as the sun begins to set
We can see it clearer now
Malevolence and hatred prowl
With glaring eyes and gritted grins
We won't let the bigots win

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.
