Sleepy Town Lyrics

This insecure state...a constant struggle
There's someone inside you staring back at me
Is it this sleepy town, or is it just me?
Is it just me?
Is it just me?

I'm choking myself inside these walls
A never-ending road as never-ending as me
Is it these concrete walls, or is it just me?
Is it this sleepy town, or is it just me?
Is it just me?
Is it just me?
Is it just me?
Is it just me?
Is it this sleepy town?
Is it these concrete walls?

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.

Cover art for Sleepy Town lyrics by Wolverine

I take it as being that the narrator is like a "sleepy town". That is their mind is relatively closed and quiet on matters outside of their direct surroundings. It is now however starting to dawn on the narrator (the sleepy town) that perhaps there is more to life and the world than themselves.

The repeating of the lines "Is it just me?" makes me thinks they are questioning is it just them that hasn't realised the greater world out there, OR conversely is it them who has been sleeping for so long?
