Why was Sleep written by Gerard Way?

Gerard has said in interviews that Sleep was inspired by his troubles sleeping while the band were in the writing process at The Paramour Hotel.

He said that he would have night tremors (or night terrors) where he'd convulse, feel like he was being strangled and would wake up unable to breathe.

You can hear recordings of him talking about these night terrors and nightmares throughout the song.
