What can this strange device be
When i touch it, it gives forth a sound
It's got wires that vibrate and give music
What can this thing be that i found?
See how it sings like a sad heart
And joyously screams out its pain
Sounds that build high like a mountain
Or notes that fall gently like rain

Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?
I don't know
Well, I've been afraid of changing
Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
I'm getting older too
So....0 -
Now I’ve been crying lately, thinking about the world as it is
Why must we go on hating, why can’t we live in bliss
Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again0 -
So if you disappear out of view
You know, I will never say goodbye
Though I try to forget it
You will make me call your name and I'll shout it to the blue summer sky
We may never meet again
So shed your skin and let's get startedPost edited by njnancy on0 -
Don't take no prisoners if can't afford to feed none
Don't start no fights if you can't predict the outcome
Don't make donations where you cannot get your dough back
Fuck the apathetic bullshittas send em' all your prozac

This one from my 2nd favorite RUSH song.....
All that we can do is just survive
All that we can do to help ourselves
Is stay alive...
Ragged lines of ragged grey
Skeletons, they shuffle away
Shouting guards and smoking guns
Will cut down the unlucky ones
I clutch the wire fence
Until my fingers bleed
A wound that will not heal-
A heart that cannot feel-
Hoping that the horror will recede
Hoping that tomorrow-
We'll all be freed....
Red Sector A...a song about The Holocaust
Peace

"I won't do the shit that piss you off and make you mad
Like running late to dinner with your business friends
Or being out late night with the fellas at the club
Or the time I forgot your birthday cuZ I's at the studio
And I will try to be a little more sensitive
Because I love you baby boo boo
And I need a place to live
I Can't go back to Jersey
I ain't goin' back
I Can't go back to Jersey
I ain't goin' back
I Can't go back to Jersey
I ain't goin' back
Why ya Why ya Why ya
Gotta do me like that?"
G. Love - "Can't Go Back to Jersey"

Out here in the fields
I fight for my meals
I get my back into my living

Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soulALPINE VALLEY MUSIC THEATRE 1992

I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies
I saw boys, toys electric irons and T.V.'s
My brain hurt like a warehouse
it had no room to spare
I had to cram so many things
to store everything in there
And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people
And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people
I never thought I'd need so many peopleALPINE VALLEY MUSIC THEATRE 1992

If I don't find a way to see through the gray that clouds my mind.
This time I look to see what's between the lines!
I can't see, I can't see, I'm going blind...
I'm blind
