In the lyrics I hear sleep satisfies and sleep satisfied and also sleep crucified.. I think it coould be about so many of us listening to them last thing before sleeping .. finding yourself lying eyes wide open sometimes.

Chris said in a interview that csc is the result of the session they did under hypnose.

 

I also hear the words "Sleep, satisfied." It also sounds as if Chris is singing, "It's true..."

 

Also, I'm 52 and equally, if not more obsessed than the younger fans.

 

I've found this song to be stimulating, not a good song to go to sleep with, ironically. It's like a morning cup of coffee or tea.

Hear the lyrics here!

 

You can hear the lyrics quite well in this, the first live performance of Sleep on Jimmy Kimmel on 6/4/08. Unfortunately, it was cut short and the song didn't quite finish, but for the part that is there you can hear Chris' enunciation very well.
