Rest
Pist*On Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
i fill my world with mysterious feelings
i feel the loss of control
i think that nothing can stop
this delirious speeding
deal! don't look to unload
cause i know fortune's misleading
im sleeping less and less
all of the time that i waste
im sleeping less and less
i feel like i taste
im opened up for my own demise so fear grips my lips
and i understand why you want to fly
but why! must you open sores and steal a moment's true meaning
The lyrics above are from the band Pist*On's song "Rest." The song seems to deal with themes of confusion, loss of control, and the fear of wasting time. The lyrics suggest that the singer does not understand themselves and that they are filling their world with mysterious feelings. The first verse talks about feeling out of control and delirious, but also warns against trusting fortune or luck because they can be misleading. The chorus talks about the singer's lack of sleep and how they feel like they are wasting time. The second verse is harder to interpret, but it seems to suggest that the singer is aware of their own mortality and feeling a sense of dread.
Overall, the lyrics of "Rest" are somewhat ambiguous and open to interpretation. They seem to deal with themes of uncertainty, anxiety, and a search for meaning. The song has a heavy, aggressive sound that fits with the darker tone of the lyrics.
