Deep Sleep Lyrics

i've been walking in a deep sleep
sleepwalking but i just woke up
from a deep sleep
a very deep sleep
i've been running on remote control
in a deep sleep
i awoke the moment i was told
a smile is just a frown turned around
on the face of a clown with a mean
streak
it was a deep sleep
a very deep sleep
i can't remember what i used
to know
somebody help me now and let
me go
into a deep sleep
push me back now let me go
into a dream again
to a sleep unlike before
so deep it never ends
i've been caught inside a deep sleep
sleepwalking as i watch myself
in a deep sleep
i keep pretending that it's someone
else

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.
