Different Strings

RUSH Geddy Lee (Vocals, Bass, Taurus Bass Pedals, Keyboards) Alex Lifeson (Guitars, Taurus Pedals) Neil Peart (Drums, Percussion) “Different Strings“ is taken from the album, “Permanent Waves“, which was released in January 1980. Lyrics by Geddy Lee. Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson. Lyrics Who’s come to slay the dragon? Come to watch him fall Making arrows out of pointed words Giant killers at the call Too much fuss and bother Too much contradiction and confusion Peel away the mystery Here’s a clue to some real motivation All there really is The two of us And we both know why we’ve come along Nothing to explain It’s a part of us To be found within a song What happened to our innocence? Did it go out of style? Along with our naiveté No longer a child Different eyes see different things Different hearts beat on different strings But there are times For you and me, when all such things agree All there really is The two of us And we both know why we’ve come along Nothing to explain It’s a part of us To be found within a song
