Lyrics

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

The candle gutters in the hall

A scratching at the windowpane

I bolt the door and bolt it twice

Yet something answers just the same

Pre-Chorus

It knows my name

It knows my name

And every face I wore to hide the shame

Chorus

Restless mind

Restless mind

You will not let me sleep tonight

Restless mind

Restless mind

You drag me through the marrow of the dark

The dark

The dark

Verse 2

The clock has stopped at half past dread

My shadow walks a step ahead

I count the stairs from twelve to one

And find a thirteenth in the gloom

Pre-Chorus

It hums my name

It hums my name

A lullaby of everything I blame

Chorus

Restless mind

Restless mind

You will not let me sleep tonight

Restless mind

Restless mind

You drag me through the marrow of the dark

The dark

The dark

Bridge

Beneath the boards a choir hums

A hymn of teeth and tambourines

The mirrors turn their faces down

And every portrait starts to breathe

Breakdown

Restless

Restless

Restless mind

Chorus

Restless mind

Restless mind

You will not let me sleep tonight

Restless mind

Restless mind

You drag me through the marrow of the dark

Outro

The dark

The dark

Restless mind
