RUSH - Between the Wheels lyrics

rate me

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 the good time

Holding on to yesterdays

Chorus

You know how that rabbit feels

Going under your speeding wheels

Bright images flashing 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 rockets' red glare

Down to "Brother can you spare..."

Another war

Another wasteland

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 uneasy streets

Hiding beneath the sheets

Got to try and fill the void

Chorus
