Falling (Demo) Lyrics

Haven't you seen me sleepwalking?
Because I've been holding your hand
Haven't you noticed me drifting?
Oh let me tell you I am

Tell me it's nothing
Try to convince me
Say I'm not drowning
But oh let me tell you I am

Please, please tell me you know
I've got to let you go
I can't help falling out of love
With you

Why am I feeling so guilty?
Why am I holding my breath?
Worry about everyone but me
And I just keep losing myself

Tell me it's nothing
Try to convince me
Say I'm not drowning
But oh let me tell you I am

Please, please tell me you know
I've got to let you go
I can't help falling out of love
With you

Won't, won't you read my mind?
Don't you make me mad at you
And I hear..

Please, please tell me you know
I've got to let you go
I can't help falling out of love
With you, with you

Haven't you noticed?...
Sleepwalking..

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.
