"'Sleep Together'" is a Porcupine Tree song. It appears as the sixth track on the 2007 album "Fear of a Blank Planet". The song is about escapism.

The live projection for this song can be seen at the "Fear of a Blank Planet microsite" [cite web | url = http://fearofablankplanet.com | title = Fear of a Blank Planet microsite | accessdate = 2007-10-01] and at Porcupine Tree's live shows. This video shows many robot-like creatures inside bubbles, all sitting in front of some kind of computers which monitors are placed on a peripheric part of such bubbles, therefore that's the only point where the creatures are connected with external world, which is a metaphor of 21st. century's way of living.

About the inspirations and influences of the song, Steven Wilson explained he wanted the track "to sound like Nine Inch Nails, with John Bonham on drums, and produced by Massive Attack" [cite web | url = http://www.alternative-zine.com/interviews/en/110 | title = Alternative-Zine.com - Interviews - Porcupine Tree lead guitarist/singer/songwriter Steven Wilson | accessdate = 2007-06-26] .
