| Passion Pit – Sleepyhead Lyrics
| 12 years ago
|
This song makes me think of the bouts of depression that I have had to deal with in my life. There would be days that I felt so terrible, I was legitimately upset with people when they would wake me up from sleeping. Sleep was such a beautiful, perfect thing, and then someone would shake me to wake me up, smiling and laughing, saying something like, "Wake up, sleepyhead!"
Looking back it's almost sort of funny, but back then, I was enraged that people would act so happy about taking me out of the only good part of the day and bringing me back into dark reality. |

The song mentions a story of a kid named Robert in third-person, and then after the chorus switches to first-person. I take this to mean that gun violence is all a chain. You hear about someone doing something violent at school, and go do it yourself. |

I also heard that this song had to do with the party scene, drinking and such. To me, I see it as someone going through a really rough time in life, maybe a break-up or not having enough money, and going out and drinking just to get away from it all. He wants to drink so much so that he doesn't feel pain anymore, but no so much that he dies. |
