Can't Sit Still
Restless Desires Unveiled: Revolting Cocks' Can't Sit Still
Lyrics
Temper frayed and sanctified,
Expressing a combination of irritation and holiness.
Delivered up in flames,
Destroyed or consumed by fire.
No eyes, no grace, no motion,
Lacking eyes, grace, and movement.
No mention of the game.
No reference to the competition or activity.
The sweetest flower in the valley,
An ironic contrast between beauty and a dark sense of humor.
The sickest joke in the book,
An extreme and unpleasant joke found in common knowledge.
Why don't you keep your eyes tightly shut,
Suggesting avoiding reality by keeping one's eyes closed.
'Cause you don't want to look.
Encouraging avoidance of facing uncomfortable truths.
If you can't sit still,
If you are restless or can't stay calm,
You can't by a thrill
You cannot experience excitement or pleasure.
I don't know whether to leave you,
Undecided about leaving or pushing someone to extremes.
Or push you over the edge,
Considering drastic actions but acknowledging personal enjoyment.
But still the pleasure is always mine,
Despite conflicting statements, personal satisfaction remains.
No matter what I've said.
The speaker's words may not change the overall experience.
If you can't sit still,
Reiteration of the importance of being calm or composed.
You can't by a thrill
Suggesting that excitement or pleasure requires stillness.
