Switchfoot’s song “Restless” is an incredible song. The moment I first heard it (“Restless” is track number four on their latest album, Vice Verses – you can buy it here) I knew it had quickly become a favorite Switchfoot song of mine.

Just a few days ago they released a music video for the song AND just today I stumbled upon a short interview with Jon Foreman (lead singer) giving explanation to the lyrics.

Below is the music video, the interview, and the lyrics. Enjoy!

INTERVIEW:

“Restless” by Switchfoot

I am the sea on a moonless night
Calling falling, slipping tides
I am the leaky, dripping pipes
The endless, aching drops of light

I am the raindrop falling down
Always longing for the deeper ground
I am the broken, breaking seas
Even my blood finds ways to bleed

Even the rivers ways to run
Even the rain to reach the sun
Even my thirsty streams
Even in my dreams

I am restless, restless, restless
Looking for you
I am restless
I run like the ocean to find your shore
Looking for you

I am the thorn stuck in your side
I am the one that you left behind
I am the dried-up doubting eyes
Looking for the well that won’t run dry

Running hard for the other side
The world that I’ve always been denied
Running hard for the infinite
With the tears of saints and hypocrites

Oh, blood of black and white and grey
Oh, death in life and night in day
One by one by one
We let our rivers run

I can hear you breathing
I can feel you leading
More than just a feeling
More than just a feeling

I can feel you you reaching
Pushing through the ceiling
Til the final healing
I’m looking for you

Until the sea of glass we meet
At last completed and complete
Where tide and tear and pain subside
And laughter drinks them dry

I’ll be waiting
Anticipating
All that I aim for
What I was made for

With every heartbeat
All of my blood bleeds
Running inside me
Looking for you

Restless

Movie Trailer – Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax – in theaters March 2nd, 2012 – I love that The Polyphonic Spree’s “Reach for the Sun” is on this soundtrack!

The Ministry of Defense of Japan has developed a spherical flying machine that is very cool:

We have already purchased all of the supplies to give this home-craft a shot in the near future:

If I would’ve known about “stick bombs” at an early age, there’s a chance I could have become famous:

Which video is YOUR favorite?

Observational science vs. Historical science

I love these videos from AiG!

I enjoyed this short (9-minute) documentary about a family working through the issues of illegal immigration.

There are a few powerful quotes and perspectives featured in this short film. The danger each of us has is adapting an instant perspective on subjects such as illegal immigration based on politics, media, and water-cooler chat. As Christians we must ALWAYS view issues through Biblical lenses!

I think when we put faces and real-life stories on subjects like this we gain new perspective on the matter and perspective can mean all the difference in the world!

Genius? Stupid? Somewhere in-between? Whatever it is, it is definitely being brainstormed to happen at a church camp near you this Summer!
