The Rest You Need

The minute hand slaps you across the knuckles
As the hour hand pushes your back
In a blink of a tired eye you're once again on the racing track
If you care too much about something you're gonna ruin it
If you care too much about something you're gonna ruin it
You bottle up, you settle down and then you throw a fit

Work with what you have
T-Take your time to complain about the mess
Make a color-coded bullet list of half important things
You have to tell the press, and then digress. For example:

• You have a vest
• You have a nest
• You have a pest

But all you need is the rest
All you need is the rest
All you need is a rest

You're never gonna get the rest you need
Internalize it
You're never gonna get there in time
Might as well forget it
I had a million questions for your ear
Over your shoulder
Playing with slime we pass our precious time
Even if we mean it

You... you should have guessed
Playing the fool, hoping for the best
What it all comes down to is a jest
What it all comes down to is a jest
Blinded by the light you're attracted to the
Light you're blinded by the
Light you're attracted to the
Light you're blinded by the
Ligh-ligh-ligh-ligh-ligh-ligh-
Speculate, suffocate and reinvest

If you care too much about something you're gonna ruin it
If you care too much about something you're gonna ruin it
Bit, by bit, by bit,bybitbit

• You have a nest
• You have a vest
• You have a pest

Might be hard to digest
That all you need is the rest
All you need is the rest
All you need is a rest

You're never gonna get the rest you need
Internalize it
You're never gonna get there in time
Might as well forget it
I had a million questions for your ear
Over your shoulder
Playing with slime we pass our precious time
Even if we mean it

Loneliness made room for sweet happiness
Go ahead and grab it
You weren't made to walk this road alone
Together we can run it
I have a picture of my dearest friend
Deep in my memory
She'll never go without saying goodbye
Even if she's in a hurry

Time is a viscious mister
He preserves the space between us
When we're together time is standing still
Floating around us
We'll never be as half as cold as he
Even in the winter
Sometimes you find out once you find the key
Inside it's colder
