Rush - Prime mover

Tekst :

Basic elemental
Instinct to survive
Stirs the higher passions
Thrill to be alive

Alternating currents
In a tidewater surge
Rational resistance
To an unwise urge
Anything can happen

From the point of conception
To the moment of truth
At the point of surrender
To the burden of proof

From the point of ignition
To the final drive
The point of the journey
Is not to arrive
Anything can happen

Basic temperamental
Filters on our eyes
Alter our perceptions
Lenses polarize

Alternating currents
Force a show of hands
Rational responses
Force a change of plans
Anything can happen

From a point on the compass
To magnetic north
The point of the needle
Moving back and forth

From the point of entry --
Until the candle is burned
The point of departure
Is not to return
Anything can happen

I set the wheels in motion
Turn up all the machines
Activate the programs
And run behind the scene

I set the clouds in motion
Turn up light and sound
Activate the window
And watch the world go round --

From the point of conception
To the moment of truth
At the point of surrender
To the burden of proof

From the point of ignition
To the final drive
The point of the journey
Is not to arrive
Anything can happen

Anything can happen

Rush - Hand over fist

Tekst :

Hand over fist
Paper around the stone
Scissors cut the paper
Cut the paper to the bone
Hand over fist
Paper around the stone
Scissors cut the paper
And the rock must stand alone

I could disappear into the crowd
But not if I keep my head in the clouds
I could walk away so proud
It s easy enough if you don t laugh too loud

I thought I was okay alone
Wait for the postman and the telephone
Lost in a world of my own
I thought I could run alone
Thought I could run through the night alone

Hand over hand
Doesn t seem so much
Hand over hand
Is the strength of the common touch

You talk as we walk along
You never imagined I could be so wrong
Humming your favorite song
You know I ve hated that song for so long

How can we ever agree?
Like the rest of the world
We grow farther apart
I swear you don t listen to me
Holding my hand to my heart
Holding my fist to my racing heart

Take a walk outside myself
In some exotic land
Greet a passing stranger
Feel the strength in his hand
Feel the world expand

I feel my spirit resist
But I open up my fist
Lay hand over hand over
Hand over fist

Rush - High water

Tekst :

When the waters rose in the darkness
In the wake of the endless flood
It flowed into our memory
It flowed into our blood

When something broke the surface
Just to see the starry dome
We still feel that relation
When the water takes us home
In the flying spray of the ocean
The water takes you home

Springing from the weight of the mountains
Like the heart of the earth would burst
Flowing out from marble fountains
In the dreams of a desert thirst

Something swam through the jungles
Where the mighty rivers roam
Something breaks the silence
When the water takes you home
I hear the wordless voices
When the water takes me home

Waves that crash on the shoreline
Torrents of tropical rain streaming down
Beyond our memory
Streaming down inside our veins

When something left the ocean
To crawl high above the foam
We still feel that elation
When the water takes us home
In a driving rain of redemption
The water takes me home...

Inne utwory

Losowe utwory

No strings

I wake up every morning with a smile on my face
Everything in its place as it should be
I start out every morning just as free as the breeze
My cares upon the shelf
Because I find myself with

No strings and no...

No jubilees

Empty endless jubilees
Re-enforce our lost freedom, oh well
With such little space to breath
Still subjects on our knees

Provincial trilogies
From the heart of our misery
Make way for history
Flickering like a long lost memory

No Jubilees

But in the excuse there lies the message
Is loneliness just an invention
The dream is escape, escape but a trap...

Rooted to the spot

I was staring backwards as you were
Tearing loose a scream
I can t fix this coffee
It won t make no steam
I can t believe what I just walked into
Now I m rooted to the spot just
watchin you

You say I should count my blessings...

Hard heart hannah

In old Savannah, I said Savannah,
The weather there is nice and warm!
The climates of a Southern brand,
But here s what I don t understand:
They got a gal there, a pretty gal there,
Who s colder than an Arctic storm,
Got...

I am alive

I was just kicking down the street
And the sun was in my eyes
So I couldn t see the truck
That was sixty times my size
And just seconds off from splattering me
Let me tell you
I was so scared I couldn...
