Do You Remember?
Sleepless Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So they're here, by my side
Gathered all, black and white
Toy soldiers, day and night

So we put them to war
As the allies roar
For the right to live
And the fight for the right to give

Do you remember when I come home?
That there's a battle I'm coming from?
Battle that I'm coming from...

Why do we choose the anger in this life?
We do we lose our tember - it's my strike
Tolerance could be the name
Patience would be the game

And again and again I say:

What do we need?
What do we breed?
What do we choose?
What do we lose?

Tolerance could be the name
Patience would be the game

Do you remember when I come home?
That there's a battle I'm coming from?
Battle that I'm coming from...

If you see me cry then understand me, try
As the pressure within, draws to it's lethal way
The plate which holds our promises is breaking
The ground which holds our future is shaking

Would you remember when I come home?




That there's a battle that I'm coming from?
Do you remember when?

Overall Meaning

The song "Do You Remember?" by Sleepless talks about the different battles that people face in their lives. The first verse of the song paints a picture of toy soldiers gathered in black and white, symbolizing the different sides of a conflict. The next lines show how these soldiers are put to war, as the allies roar, in the fight for the right to live and the right to give. This could be a metaphor for how people often fight for their beliefs and values.


The chorus of the song asks the listener if they remember that the singer is coming home from a battle. It is unclear what this battle represents- it could be a personal struggle or an actual war. The next verse talks about the anger and impatience that people often have in their lives, wondering why they lose their temper so easily. The singer suggests that tolerance and patience could be the answer to this problem.


The final verses of the song talk about the pressure that people face in their lives, and how the promises and future that people hold onto are fragile and on the verge of breaking. The song ends with the same question posed in the chorus- asking the listener to remember the singer when they come home from battle.
