Sleeping Limbs Lyrics

My lungs are not waking up
They don't listen to what the rest of me knows.

And I'm counting down the days I have left
Only listening while I'm holding my breath
'Til I see you.

Cut it down, I will cut them down
They tower over me while I sleep
But I’ve had too much to just lay around
Only pretending while I'm facing the ground.

These scars, my only wish
What's the point to this?
There's no point to this
And these scars, my only wish
What's the point to this?
There's no point to this.

Hold on to me,
Hold onto my back,
I've fallen down the hole much too fast
And even if the light pours in up over my head
Will I see it then or pretend that I'm dead again.

These scars, my only wish
What's the point to this?
There's no point to this
And these scars, my only wish
What's the point to this?
There's no point to this.

Cause we all change with the morning after
But these tired hearts aren't beating fast enough
So can I ask you to leave me alone
I'll help when I am able to
get back up
get back up
get back up
get back up
get back up
get back up
get back up
get back up

My lungs are not waking up
They don't listen to what the rest of me knows.

And I'm counting down the days I have left
Only listening while I'm holding my breath
'Til I see you.

Cut it down, I will cut them down
They tower over me while I sleep
But I’ve had too much to just lay around
Only pretending while I'm facing the ground.

These scars, my only wish
What's the point to this?
There's no point to this
And these scars, my only wish
What's the point to this?
There's no point to this.

Hold on to me,
Hold onto my back,
I've fallen down the hole much too fast
And even if the light pours in up over my head 
Will I see it then or pretend that I'm dead again.

These scars, my only wish
What's the point to this?
There's no point to this
And these scars, my only wish
What's the point to this?
There's no point to this.

Cause we all change with the morning after
But these tired hearts aren't beating fast enough
So can I ask you to leave me alone
I'll help when I am able to
get back up 
get back up
get back up
get back up 
get back up
get back up
get back up

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.
