Restless
[5x11] Unkle feat. Josh Homme Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I'm all restless but I don't care
You don't like me much, well me neither
You go me, my, ma, like you're some kind of God
You live like someone trippin' on the same one you lost

I'm in you, you're on me
I'm in you, you're on me
Got this sinking feeling, so if I sing it it's true
There ain't no habit that I will not defend
If it comes back well I will not resend
I'm broken, house broken
Now you on the mend

I'm in you, you're on me

Those who pay, will just pay it again
Never beginning nor a jewel at the end
Rip me from the breakage and solvents
Taking over, I'll just take what you got

I'm in you, you're on me
I'm in you, you're on me
You're the truth, I do believe
I'm in you, you're on me
Easy

Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow the light to the love

Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow, gonna follow, gonna follow the light to the love

Well I've gone restless, I don't care
I got fifteen bucks worth of savior faire
You wanna step in my way you won't step again
I just break it, I just bend, I resend

I'm in you, you're on me
I'm in you, you're on me
I'm in you, you're on me





Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow the light to the love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Restless" bring into focus the singer's restlessness, rebelliousness and disregard for the opinions of others. The song starts with the singer admitting to feeling restless but saying they do not care if others do not like them, because they do not like those people either. They are critical of those who act like they are god, living like they are still under the influence of something they lost. The lines "I'm in you, you're on me" possibly suggest a relationship or connection that is toxic or unbalanced as one person seems to have more control or influence over the other.


The second verse seems to indicate that the singer has a sinking feeling that is true, but is ready to defend whatever habit they have that is causing it, and will not stop even if it leads to more problems. The description of being "broken, house broken" brings a sense of being defeated, perhaps by overindulgence or addiction, while the other person might be on the mend, suggesting they are trying to get better. The lines "Those who pay, will just pay it again, Never beginning nor a jewel at the end" suggest that one can never truly break free from destructive cycles that involve paying a price.


The chorus is repetitive and seems to offer some kind of escape or solution, where the singer decides to follow the light to love. However, the song ends on a defiant note, where the singer declares they are restless and do not care, and that they will do what they want even if it means breaking or bending something.

Well, I'm all restless but I don't care
You don't like me much, well, me neither
You go read my mind like some kind of God
You live, let's have you trippin' on the same one you lost

And you
Are on me
I'm in you
You're on me

Got this sinking feeling I sank with the tulip
There ain't no habit that I would not defend
Let's come back, well, I don't resend
And I'm broken house, break you, you on the mend

When you
You're on me

Those who pay will just pay it again
It's ever beginning, that's a duel to the end
Let's rip me from the breakage and solvents
Taking over, I'll just take what you got

When you
You're on me
I'm in you
You're on me
You're the truth
I do believe
I'm in you
You're on me
Easy

Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow the light to the love

Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow, gonna follow

Well, I've gone restless, well, I don't care
I got fifteen bucks of savoir faire
You wanna step in my way to step it again
I never break it, I just bend it and I resend

And you
You're on me
I'm in you
You're on me

Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow, follow
The light to the love

Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow the light to the love
Gonna follow, gonna follow
Follow the light to the love

And you
