Rush "Limelight" Слова песни

Limelight

Living on a lighted stageApproaches the unrealFor those who think and feelIn touch with some realityBeyond the gilded cage

Cast in this unlikely roleIll-equipped to actWith insufficient tactOne must put up barriersTo keep oneself intact

Living in the limelightThe universal dreamFor those who wish to seemThose who wish to beMust put aside the alienationGet on with the fascinationThe real relationThe underlying theme

Living in a fish eye lensCaught in the camera eyeI have no heart to lieI can't pretend a strangerIs a long-awaited friend

All the world's indeed a stageAnd we are merely playersPerformers and portrayersEach another's audienceOutside the gilded cage

Living in the limelightThe universal dreamFor those who wish to seemThose who wish to beMust put aside the alienationGet on with the fascinationThe real relationThe underlying theme

Living in the limelightThe universal dreamFor those who wish to seemThose who wish to beMust put aside the alienationGet on with the fascinationThe real relationThe underlying themeThe real relationThe underlying theme
