Restless Lyrics - Lost Together - Blue Rodeo

You were so poised 

Like some matador raising his steel 

It's the same old useless ceremony 

And a last bow before the kill 

Every junkie in this laundromat 

Is equal in the eyes of your lord 

But you just put your hand to your hip 

You're gonna give them a taste 

A taste of your sword 

I get so restless 

I get so restless 

I get so restless 

Restless sir 

In what you hoped looked so dignified 

You played your exit for a laugh 

And like they've done so many times before 

They made excuses on your behalf 

And every street Jesus and suicide, 

Is just another voice that goes unheard 

Every candle in the cathedral 

A prayer for a better world 

I get so restless 

I get so restless 

I get so restless 

Restless sir 

You were so poised 

Like some matador raising his steel 

It's the same old useless ceremony 

And a last bow before the kill 

And in the not too distant future 

You'll have the preacher and soldier 

Floating round in space 

The soldier's finger on the trigger 

The preacher's joined in a state of grace 

I get so restless 

I get so restless 

I get so restless
