Breathing Patterns Lyrics

You'll never know how you sing when you're asleep
and I'm listening I'm listening
You'll never know how you say the things you say
and I'm listening I'm listening
for my name
FOR MY NAME
You'll never know how you sing when you're asleep
and I'm listening
You'll never know how you say the things you say
and I'm listening
You'll never know how you say the things you say
and I'm Wondering I am Wondering
(?????????????)
It's okay
it's alrite
It's all inside your mind
It's okay
It's alrite
it's all inside your mind
It's okay
it's alrite
It's all inside your mind
It's okay
it's alrite
It's all inside your mind(repeat a few times)
Wondering
Listening
wondering
(????????)
wondering
am I suppose to call
listening..

(????????)= What the heck is he mumbuling??

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.

I would love to see My Hotel Year live, mainly to hear this song. I love it, and may have to purchase a MHY CD soon.

yes, I think the first "???" is "who's to blame". The second "???" may be "listening" again. I have no idea what he's mumbling.
