No Rest Lyrics by Shawn James

Shadows

2012

[Verse 1]
I've been waitin' on the wind to change direction
It's been such a very long time
Since I've been able to make a decision
That won't waste my time
So I went out searching for freedom
Oh, and I went out searchin' for truth
But what I found was not what I expected
'Cause all those things, they lie inside of you
[Chorus]
But, oh, don't you fall
Into that pit of loneliness
'Cause I've been there before
And I did not get no rest
[Verse 2]
Well, I see you've been waitin' on something to
Come and brighten your day
Well, I'm here now to tell you that you've got
To let go of that way
Once it's gone you'll feel so free
You'll never ever look back again
Just like a bird flyin' through the trees
With no path to guide, where the hell you put your feet?
[Chorus]
Now, don't you fall into that
Pit of loneliness
'Cause I've been there before
And I did not get no rest
And I did not get no rest
And I did not get no rest
