Babe, I see you´re holding yourself tight
You press your ribs down on the right
You´re driving drunk again tonight
You have a cigarette and you´re patting down your pockets for a light

Babe, you got a ragged pair of pants
Your face is trembling like a dance
In your belly something´s climbing higher like a nest of ants
On their way to the light

It´s time to rest
Babe it´s time to rest
You push yourself until you crack
I don´t see how you can get back
From the ledge where you can hear your angles sing
From the ledge where you can feel so painfully everything
Inside you and around you

Babe, I see why you need your wine

You are racing against time
Your spiritual ambition makes the sweat flow from your mind

Babe, can you make it with just a taste?
Are you okay with all this space?
You don´t know it but you´re full of grace
Though concentration is angry on your face

It´s time to rest
Babe it´s time to rest
You push yourself until you crack
I don´t see how you can get back
From the ledge where you can hear your angles sing
From the ledge where you can feel so painfully everything
Inside you and around you

It´s time to rest
Babe, it´s time to rest
It´s time to rest. Babe
It´s time to rest
