Rest Lyrics

Hey can you hear me?
I'm calling your name
Hello? Or is this goodbye?
The gleam in your eyes
It troubles my brain
Will I see it again?
So I can rest my head

Angel...Angel! Dancing away
As all of my thoughts get rearranged
Angel...Angel! Turning away
Just when thing seem
To have changed
So I can rest my head

Hey can you hear me?
I'm calling your name
Hello? Or is this goodbye?
The gleam in your eyes
It troubles my brain
Will I see it again?
So I can rest my head

weheyyy, first. anywho, i love this song, its a good slow one, i dont know why i like it, it just rocks. the lyrics are easy to relate to if you ask me, its basically about how he has been troubled by a girl, i think shes gone away, 'hello or is this goodbye' meaning she has come one last time, so is he supposed to say hello or his last goodbyes. then her smile he wants to know if he'l ever see it again so it can put his mind to rest.

i think you're right about everything, except, i think this song was written when his mom died. instead of talking about a girl, it's his mom

i personnally think its about him not seeing someone and wondering if tehy are alright and you can't go to sleep until you know they are safe

this is one of my favourite green day songs (ironic because it doesn't actually sound anything like green day.....)

BUT

it bears a VERY striking to 'In My Room' by the Beach Boys....hmmm....strokes invisible beard
