Sweet Sleep
Vogue Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I GET UP IN THE MORNING, BUT WHAT THE FUCK FOR?
ONLY TO BE PUSHED AROUND OR ELSE BE IGNORED.
I GO TO BED AT NIGHT, IT'S THE BEST PART OF THE DAY.
BECAUSE NEXT TO NARCOTICS, SLEEP'S THE BEST ESCAPE.

SWEET SWEET SLEEP

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Vogue's "Sweet Sleep" can be interpreted as a commentary on the monotony and frustration of everyday life, and the importance of finding solace and escape from the struggles of the day. The opening lines, "I get up in the morning, but what the fuck for? Only to be pushed around or else be ignored," suggest a sense of disillusionment and dissatisfaction with the daily grind. The singer seems to feel like they are going through the motions of life without any real purpose or fulfillment.

However, the next line offers a small glimmer of hope - "I go to bed at night, it's the best part of the day." This implies that the singer finds some comfort and relief in sleep, which is described as "the best escape" next to narcotics. This comparison between sleep and drugs could be seen as a metaphor for the ways in which we often seek artificial ways to cope with the stresses of life, rather than finding genuine sources of comfort and support.

Ultimately, the chorus repeats the phrase "Sweet sweet sleep" as a sort of mantra, emphasizing the importance of finding rest and rejuvenation in order to face another day. The song seems to suggest that even though life can be difficult and discouraging, there are still small moments of peace and respite to be found.

ONLY TO BE PUSHED AROUND OR ELSE BE IGNORED.
Throughout my day, I feel like I have no control over my existence and am constantly overlooked and disregarded.

I GO TO BED AT NIGHT, IT'S THE BEST PART OF THE DAY.
The only gratifying moment in my life is retiring to bed at the end of the day.

BECAUSE NEXT TO NARCOTICS, SLEEP'S THE BEST ESCAPE.
I have found that aside from drugs, sleep is the one place where I can escape reality and experience relief from my mundane existence.

SWEET SWEET SLEEP
The embrace of slumber is a sweeter refuge than anything else in my life.
