Answer 4

i think it means don't go to go bed when you're mad , stay up  and plot out your revenge on the person who made you feel this way , because by the next day the reason will seem insignificant,or at the least lose some of its weight.

For me , it depends on the person , and the reason , if it was a person i loved , i would fall asleep where i stand , because it won't be worth it in the long run, if it were an enemy , i would not sleep till i'm happy .

Answer 5

I can think of better things to stay up for ;-)
