Rush - Distant Early Warning lyrics

Across the cities of the plain

There's no swimming in the heavy water --

No singing in the acid rain

Red alert

Red alert

It's so hard to stay together

Passing through revolving doors

We need someone to talk to

And someone to sweep the floors --

Incomplete

Incomplete

The world weighs on my shoulders

But what am I to do?

You sometimes drive me crazy --

But I worry about you

I know it makes on difference

To what you're going through

But I see the tip of the iceberg --

And I worry about you...

Cruising under your radar

Watching from satellites

Take a page from the red book --

Keep them in your sights

Red alert

Red alert

Left and rights of passage

Black and whites of youth

Who can face the knowledge

That the truth is not the truth?

Obsolete

Absolute

Absalom, Absalom, Absalom
