PRIME MOVER Lyrics
Artist: Rush
Album: Hold Your Fire
Words by Neil Peart, Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
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 --
anything can happen

Comments/Interpretations
Rush rules! They have articulate lyrics that amaze me to this day!
Rush is the most amazing band ever
3o+ years and still amazing
They still have plenty "whoop ass" in their glass!
Peart is not only a musical, but a poetic genius.
