Rush

Rush - Red Tide lyrics

To run in our streets

History some new wrinkle

We are doomed to repeat

Fugitives at the bedroom door

Lovers pause to find and open store

Rain is burning on the forest floor

And the red tide kisses the shore

This is not a false alarm

This is not a test

Stay out of the sun

It only burns my skin

Sky full of poison

And the atmosphere's too thin

Bless the sun, the rain no more

River running like an open sore

Black wind falling to the ocean floor

And the red tide washes ashore

This is not a false alarm

This is not a test

Nowhere we can fly away

Nowhere we can rest

The party is disrupted by

An uninvited guest

Deadline approaches

For the weary land

It used to be something

But we let it run down in our hands

Too late for debate, too bad to ignore

Quiet rebellion leads to open war

Bring a sea-change to the factory floor

As the red tide covers the shore

Now's the time to turn the tide

Now's the time to fight

Let us not go gently

To the endless winter night

Now's the time to make the time

While hope is still in sight

Let us not go gently

To the endless winter night
