We Don't Sleep at Night Lyrics

Sell all your shit
Get on a plane
And you can fly away

Every time that you are asked to talk
All that you've got to say is
My love is right it tells me what to do
Take my advice and sell all your shit too

My love is right it tells me what to do
Take my advice and sell all your shit too
My love is right it tells me what to do
Take my advice and sell all your shit too

We don't sleep at night
We don't sleep at all

We don't sleep at night
We don't sleep at night

Sell all your shit
Get on a plane
And you can fly away

My love is right it tells me what to do
Take my advice and sell all your shit too

My love is right it tells me what to do
Take my advice and sell all your shit too

This is a sweet song, and noone's commented on it! I love the intro, and then how it turns into a louder bass.

On to the meaning... Maybe if he wants to be with his loved one, he has to drop everything else out of his life? If he wants to keep her, he has to get rid of all the shit out of life.

Although, I don't see how the "we don't sleep at night" could fit into this theory...

It's from the Romantic Rights EP. Don't know how I didn't stumple upon this earlier.

Great song. Love the intro. My fav from the Romantic Rights EP (and the techno-ish "Girls are Short" remix of Romantic Rights).

I think it's about a guy that's had so many failed relationships that he just "sold all his shit" and decided to get away from it all.

i personally think it is about becoming a musician and the sacrifices you have to make. when people ask you to explain why you do it, you explain to them that it is love. and that is all that matters. and sometimes you stay up all night creating what you love. if you want to make it in the business, all nighters may be necessary.
