No Reason
For things to be
The way they are
Save erratic beliefs
Deep indoctrinations
A stubborn willingness
To stay stagnant
Yet could we handle
Lifting the veil off of
The darkness of death
To maybe realize
We all make up
One consciousness
To experience
A subjective reality
In an infinite expanse
Lasting a moment
For no reason
“Just between the ice ages anyway
I want to talk, but I haven’t got too much to say
I don’t mean to be so nihilistic
Forgive me if I seem to be too realistic”
– Geddy Lee
“My Favorite Headache”
“One man standing on the plains of Abraham
Watching the damaged sunrise
One man standing near the edge of a quiet breakdown
I watch the sea, it helps to anchor me
I watch the sea, it helps to anchor me
Once you start hiding you keep on hiding
Till your paranoia calms down
Once you start watching, you keep on watching
Till you’re tied up and your spell bound
Just between the ice ages anyway
I want to talk, but I haven’t got too much to say
I don’t mean to be so nihilistic
Forgive me if I seem to be too realistic
Once you start running, you keep on running
Till your muscles start to break down
Once you start falling, you keep on falling
Till you hit the cold, cold ground
I watch TV – What do you want from me?
I watch TV – What do you want from me?
Just between the ice ages anyway
I want to talk, I haven’t got enough to say
I don’t mean to be so nihilistic
Forgive me if I seem to be too realistic
Once you start hiding you keep on hiding
Till you feel you’re safe and sound
Once you start watching, you keep on watching
Till you’re tied up and you’re spell bound
I watch the sea, it helps to anchor me
I watch the sea, I saw it on TV”
