With its awesome resemblance to 80’s New Order, “Restless” is the fantastic opener, and the first single off Music Complete, released on 28 July 2015.
A man realizes his own greed and consumption for consumerism, and how he can’t seem to get away from it.
[Verse 1]
What can you buy
That lifts a heavy heart up to the sky?
What makes your day?
What miracle of life has come to stay?
A taste of love
So sweet, so real you can't let go
And how does it feel?
It feels so good...
[Pre-Chorus]
But how much do you need?
How much, how much do you need?
How much do you need?
How much, how much do you need?
[Verse 2]
I want a nice car
A girlfriend who's as pretty as a star
I want respect
As much, as much as I can get
[Pre-Chorus]
But how much do you need?
How much, how much do you need?
How much do you need?
How much, how much do you need?
[Chorus]
Restless
I feel so restless
And in this changing world
I am lost for words
I feel so restless
Ain't got no interest
I couldn't care less
Can't be a success
[Verse 3]
Due to current studies
The fiscal climate isn't looking good
Get out of town
The streets are running rivers full of blood
The more I see
The less, the less that I believe
The more I hear
The less, the less that I perceive
[Chorus]
Restless
I feel so restless
And in this changing world
I am lost for words
I feel so restless
Ain't got no interest
I couldn't care less
Can't be a success
[Verse 1]
What can you buy
That lifts a heavy heart up to the sky?
What makes your day?
What miracle of life
Has come to stay?
A taste of love
So sweet, so real you can't let go
And how does it feel?
It feels so good...
[Outro]
Restless
I am so restless
And this changing world
Leaves me speechless
I am lost for words
But I kept my nerve
But it's not hopeless
If you take less
