Slumberland Lyrics

Afraid of sinking alone again
Way up to the ceiling alone, no friends
Lemon-queen smiling, off with your heads
Like flies in the honey, enjoy last breath

I tried to wake up from fuzzy blurry slumberland
Can't count the days there
Can't count the days there

Summer sun shining on yellowed skin
Dreaming of exploding, begin again

I tried to wake up from fuzzy blurry slumberland
Can't count the days there
Can't count the days there

Harmony and melody are tripping on the tip of my tongue
Wishing on a satellite, the lights so bright

I tried to call
The telephone was out of reach
While church bells sing your song

I tried to wake up from fuzzy blurry slumberland
Can't count the days there
Can't count the days there

Don't try to follow
Don't try to follow me down
Don't try to follow
Don't try, no, no

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.
