Cover art for We Don't Sleep at Night lyrics by Death from Above 1979

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.
