Restless Lyrics

Restless, sweet, restless, young, restless, old soul
breathless, sweet, breathless, young, breathless, old soul
heart to beat, I got a hole to breathe
you need a wrinkle in my time
tug at my sleeve, I got a heart that leaves
just like the winter do to trees
one foot in the grave but I got two foot on the pavement yeah
just like the trees do come springtime
one foot in the grave but I got two foot on the pavement yeah
restless, sweet, reckless, you’re reckless on me
let this, sweet, let this, please, let this gain speed
mouth to feed , I got a garden of green
just like a grapevine don’t get wine
but I’m ‘onna ride the breeze, I’ll be an anti-disease
just like the trees do come springtime
one foot in the grave but I got two foot on the pavement yeah
I don’t wanna believe what they say ‘bout growin’ old
I don’t wanna believe what they say
I know one foot on the grave but I got two foot on the pavement
yeah, uh huh

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
