name that tune?

When I talk to the trees
O'great trees who have learned to speak slowly
I know that they believe that they have an answer
Then I walk in the city where I cannot hear it

When I talk to the city
I have already learned three answers
before I call the question
And slowly, I wish myself among trees
but can not hear myself wishing

When I talk to the people
who are the trees that grow in the city
they reply with a fond kindness, slowly
but there is no answer
for experience to be made by mistake

Upon this key, time will slide,
Beyond the lock, you lose your mind.
And as our door becomes open,
A rush of sound is found inside
Creating Dreams that pass you by.

You may live through your life a long long time..
But you will never know from where it came,
Yet all you've seen is what you've wanted to,
You`re walking forward as you look behind,
Still watching those old memories fade and die...

This door is heavy, and is deeply stained,
With wasted tears, that try to fight in vain,
You may be sitting, feeling quite secure,
But listen carefully - and this key is yours -
For we can lead you far beyond that door...

there are dangers hidden, trust in that language
and it is precisely this conception that which must
not be changed
the epitome of our language is patterns containment
of thought and sound
<shouting nonsense words>
I die to fight!!
I die to fight!!
I die to fight!!
<shouting nonsense words>

Upon this key, time will slide,
Beyond each lock, you lose your mind.
And as our door becomes open,
A rush of sound is found inside -
Creating Dreams that pass you by..

Bent cold sidewalk, open the gate,
I may be late but I can no longer wait.
Stealing the crown that stood me up,
I'm laying the table with dusty plates.
Bent cold sidewalk, open the gate,
I may be late but I can no longer wait.
Playing the god to fix your gaze,
I'm holding you firm on another day.
Bent cold sidewalk, open the gate,
I may be late but I can no longer wait.

<shouting nonsense words>

Crooked Conscienceless Path?

  Ooooo i'd have to go for Todd/Utopia . the music they produced was mind blowing.

maybe this should this be an over 40 poll?

Canada's best contribution to prog
Michael Brook - Cobalt Blue

YAWN...........................

take your place
and enjoy the view

There's safety in numbers
When you learn to divide
How can we be in
If there is no outside
All shades of opinion
Feed an open mind
But your values are twisted
Let us help you unwind
You may look like we do
Talk like we do
-But you know how it is

You're not one of us
Not one of us
No you're not one of us

RUSH breakdown
Alex Lifeson could of had a good career with a top
tier prog band, as well as Neil Pert, a wonderful
drummer.
Geddy Lee should have stuck to playing the bass
and left his fairytales in the fire.
With a good psychedelic songwriter and a
keyboardist or maybe a sax/flute player they could
have been something.

Musically or commercially?
