Viewing Lyrics for The Fountain Of Lamneth:
| | | Artist: | Rush |
| | Album: | Caress Of Steel | | Track: | The Fountain Of Lamneth | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 56 | | | | Lyrics: | I. In The Valley
I am born
I am me
I am new
I am free
Look at me
I am
young
Sight unseen
Life unsung
My eyes have just been opened
And they're
open very wide
Images around me
Don't identify inside
Just one blur I
recognize
The one that soothes and feeds
My way of life is easy
And as simple are my
needs
Yet my eyes are drawn toward
The mountain in the east
Fascinates and
captivates
Gives my heart no peace
The mountain holds the sunrise
In the prison of
the night
'Til bursting forth from rocky chains
The valley floods with
light
Living one long sunrise
For to me all things are new
I've never watched
the sky grow pale
Or strolled through fields of dew
I do not know of dust to dust
I
live from breath to breath
I live to climb that mountain
To the Fountain of
Lamneth
II. Didacts And Narpets
Stay, go
Work, no
Learn, live
Earn,
give
Stay or fight?
What's right?
Listen
III. No One At The
Bridge
Crying back to consciousness
The coldness grips my skin
The sky is pitching
violently
Drawn by shrieking winds
Seaspray blurs my vision
Waves roll by so
fast
Save my ship of freedom
I'm lashed helpless to the mast
Remembering when
first I held
The wheel in my own hands
I took the helm so eagerly
And sailed for
distant lands
But now the sea's too heavy
And I just, I just don't understand
Why
must my crew desert me?
When I need, I need a guiding hand
Call out for
direction
And there's no one there to steer
Shout out for salvation
But there's no
one there to hear
Cry out supplication
For the maelstrom is near
Scream out
desperation
But no one cares to hear
IV. Panacea
The whiteness of
confusion
Is unfolding from my mind
I stare around in wonder
Have I left my life
behind?
I catch the scent of ambergris
And turn my head, surprised
My gaze is
caught and held and I
Am helpless, mesmerized
Panacea, liquid grace
Oh let me
touch your fragile face
Enchantment falls around me
And I know I cannot
leave
Here's a meaning for my life
A shelter from the storm
Pacify my troubles
with
Her body, soft and warm
Naked in our unity
A smile for every
tear
Gentle hands that promise me
Comfort through the years
Yet I know I must
be gone
Before the light of dawn
Panacea, passion pure
I can't resist your
gentle lure
My heart will lie beside you
And my wandering body grieves
V.
Bacchus Plateau
Another endless day
Silhouettes of grey
Another glass of
wine
Drink with eyes that shine
To days without that chill at morning
long Nights
time out of mind
Draw another goblet
From the cask of '43
Crimson misty
memory
Hazy glimpse of me
Give me back my wonder
I've something more to give
I
guess it doesn't matter
There's not much more to live
Another foggy dawn
The
mountain almost gone
Another doubtful fear
The road is not so clear
My soul grows
ever weary
And the end is ever near
Draw another goblet
From the cask of
'43
Crimson misty memory
Hazy glimpse of me
Give me back my wonder
I've
something more to give
I guess it doesn't matter
There's not much more to
live
VI. The Fountain
Look, the mist is rising
And the sun is peaking
through
See the steps grow lighter
As I reach their final few
Hear the dancing
waters
I must be drawing near
Feel, my heart is pounding
With embattled hope and
fear
Now, at last I fall before
The Fountain of Lamneth
I thought I would be
singing
But I'm tired, out of breath
Many journeys end here
But, the secret's told
the same
Life is just a candle, and a dream
Must give it flame
The key, the
end, the answer
Stripped of their disguise
Still it's all confusion
And tears spring
to my eyes
Though I've reached a signpost
It's really not the end
Like Old Sol behind
the mountain
I'll be coming up again
I'm in motion
I am still
I am
crying
I am still
I'm together
I'm apart
I'm forever
At the
start
Still I am
