Rush - The Pass Lyrics
Words by neil peart, music by geddy lee and alex lifesonProud swagger out of the schoolyardWaiting for the worlds applauseRebel without a conscienceMartyr without a causeStatic on your frequencyElectrical storm in your veinsRaging at unreachable gloryStraining at invisible chainsAnd now youre trembling on a rocky ledgeStaring down into a heartless seaCant face life on a razors edgeNothings what you thought it would beAll of us get lost in the darknessDreamers learn to steer by the starsAll of us do time in the gutterDreamers turn to look at the carsTurn around and turn around and turn aroundTurn around and walk the razors edgeDont turn your backAnd slam the door on meIts not as if this barricadeBlocks the only roadIts not as if youre all aloneIn wanting to explodeSomeone set a bad exampleMade surrender seem all rightThe act of a noble warriorWho lost the will to fightAnd now youre trembling on a rocky ledgeStaring down into a heartless seaDone with life on a razors edgeNothings what you thought it would beNo hero in your tragedyNo daring in your escapeNo salutes for your surrenderNothing noble in your fateChrist, what have you done?
