about

Restless is a song that we wrote about finding rest in a busy city...

lyrics

Restless

***

I've decided that i'm not gonna lose my mind
Hypervisual; distracted by bright lights
My heart beats in four four time, but sometimes five
On the corner of this crowded street
Singing parables of old friends, busking for black coffee
Now wide eyed with a wider smile
'Cos this narrative is bigger than any rooftop I could climb

So take heed, oh take heed
Of that blood red burgundy sky
When you feel like you're losing your mind
Fast as the summer tides

So take heed, oh take heed
Of that blood red burgundy sky
When the world declares war on your time
Girl, rest those tired eyes

Whilst the parties sell their plans
In papers that I just can't buy
I'll try to wash the blood off my hands
Through songs that I just can't write
Tell me, where is my peace of mind?

Take all my shortfalls, take all my doubts
Let 'em burn up in August droughts
So hard to be still, but I can't think why
Oh rest find my restless mind
Oh rest find my restless mind

So take heed, oh take heed
Of that blood red burgundy sky
When you feel like you're losing your mind
Fast as the summer tides

So take heed, oh take heed
Of that blood red burgundy sky
When the world declares war on your time
Girl, rest those tired eyes
