The Generator
Rest Repose Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Making something from nothing
Making it live
Making it breathe
Break the monotony

I hate the feeling of regularity
Never sat well with me
Finding less and less comfort
In perpetuation of motion
Without a way
Without a way

Making something from nothing
Making it real
Making it breathe

I hate the feeling of regularity
Never sat well with me

Making something from nothing
Making it real
Making it breathe
Break the monotony

I hate the feeling of regularity
Never sat well with me
Finding less and less comfort
In perpetuation of motion




Without a way
Without a way
