1938

To live between a rock and a hard place
In between time-cruising in prime time
Soaking up the cathode rays
To live between the wars in our time
Living in real time- holding on to yesterdays
You know how that rabbit feels going under your spinning wheels
Bright images passing by like windshields towards a fly
Frozen in the fatal climb, but the wheels of time just pass you by
Wheels can take you around, wheels can cut you down
We can go from boom to bust
From dreams to a bowl of dust
We can fall from rocket's red glare down to "Brother can you spare" another war another waste land and another
Lost generation
It slips between your hands like water
This living in real time, a dizzying lifetime
Reeling by on celluloid
Struck between the eyes by the big time world
Walking on easy streets, hiding between the sheets, got to try to fill the void
"Between the Wheels" by Neil Peart of Rush
