Lyrics for Territories by Rush:
| | | Artist: | Rush |
| | Album: | Power Windows | | Track: | Territories | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 129 | | | | Lyrics: | I see the Middle Kingdom between Heaven and Earth
Like the Chinese call the country of their
birth
We all figure that our homes are set above
Other people than the ones we know and
love
In every place with a name
They play the same territorial game
Hiding behind the
lines
Sending up warning signs
The whole wide world
An endless
universe
Yet we keep looking through
The eyeglass in reverse
Don't feed the
people
But we feed the machines
Can't really feel
What international means
In
different circles, we keep holding our ground
In different circles, we keep spinning round and
round
We see so many tribes -- overrun and undermined
While their invaders dream of
lands they've left behind
Better people -- better food -- and better beer
Why move around
the world when Eden was so near?
The bosses get talking so tough
And if that wasn't evil
enough
We get the drunken and passionate pride
Of the citizens along for the
ride
They shoot without shame
In the name of a piece of dirt
For a change of
accent
Or the colour of your shirt
Better the pride that resides
In a citizen of the
world
Than the pride that divides
When a colourful rag is unfurled | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
