Song Meaning of “O Sono Não Vem” by Anastácia
“O Sono Não Vem” by Anastácia is a sad and reflective song about grappling with insomnia. She sings about the pain of lying awake in bed, unable to sleep and how the night only brings her misery. There’s a feeling of desperation in her voice as she expresses her agony and her inability to find comfort. She wonders why sleep refuses to come and yet seems so elusive, even when she seeks it out. At the same time she reflects on her journey and all that she has endured, and this causes her to become emotional as she dwells on her hardship. The song speaks of the exhaustion felt when facing difficult and uncertain times, and the disappointment of being unable to find any solace in sleep. Its verses remind us that no matter how hard we try, sometimes life can be so overwhelming that the only comfort we can find is in the embrace of the darkness.
