Sleep When I'm Dead

"Sleep When I'm Dead" is a single by the British band The Cure released on 13 July 2008 on Geffen Records in the United Kingdom. It was pushed back to 15 July in the United States to comply with the tradition of releasing songs on a Tuesday. It has the distinction of including a keyboard part despite the fact that the band has not had a keyboardist in their lineup since 2005, although "The Only One" and "NY Trip" feature piano parts.

Robert Smith told Rolling Stone the song was originally written during sessions for the band's 1985 album The Head on the Door and had the working title of "Kat 8."
