On A Plain - Boombox Rehearsals Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The second time, [?]
I lost my voice, [?]
I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do?
The [?] time
I lost my voice, [?]
Love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do?

[Chorus]
I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain

[Verse 2]
The seventh time, [?]
I lost my voice, [?]
I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do?
The [?] time, [?]
I fell in [?], [?]
Love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do?

[Chorus]
I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
[Bridge]
Where I [?] dream of [?]
[?]
Where I know I [?]
Oh my god I don't [?]

[Verse 3]
The second time, [?]
I lost my voice, [?]
Love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do?
[?]
I know I lied, [?]
Love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do?

[Chorus]
I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
I can't complain

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
