Blue Rodeo - Restless lyrics
rate meYou were so poised<br />
<br />
Like some matador raising his steel<br />
<br />
It's the same old useless ceremony<br />
<br />
And a last bow before the kill<br />
<br />
<br />
Every junkie in this laundromat<br />
Is equal in the eyes of your lord<br />
<br />
But you just put your hand to your hip<br />
You're gonna give them a taste<br />
<br />
<br />
I get so restless<br />
A taste of your sword<br />
<br />
I get so restless<br />
<br />
<br />
I get so restless<br />
<br />
Restless sir<br />
<br />
<br />
In what you hoped looked so dignified<br />
You played your exit for a laugh<br />
<br />
<br />
They made excuses on your behalf<br />
And like they've done so many times before<br />
<br />
And every street Jesus and suicide,<br />
<br />
Is just another voice that goes unheard<br />
<br />
Every candle in the cathedral<br />
<br />
A prayer for a better world<br />
<br />
I get so restless<br />
<br />
<br />
I get so restless<br />
I get so restless<br />
<br />
Restless sir<br />
<br />
You were so poised<br />
<br />
Like some matador raising his steel<br />
<br />
<br />
It's the same old useless ceremony<br />
And a last bow before the kill<br />
<br />
<br />
And in the not too distant future<br />
You'll have the preacher and soldier<br />
Floating round in space<br />
<br />
<br />
The soldier's finger on the trigger<br />
<br />
The preacher's joined in a state of grace<br />
I get so restless<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I get so restless<br />
I get so restless
