Second Nature - Rush[00:00:01]

Written by：Geddy Lee/Alex Lifeson/Neil Peart[00:00:21]

A memo to a higher office[00:00:22]

Open letter to the powers that be[00:00:26]

To a god a king a head of state[00:00:30]

A captain of industry[00:00:34]

To the movers and the shakers[00:00:38]

Can't everybody see[00:00:42]

It ought to be second nature[00:00:48]

I mean the places where we live[00:00:51]

Let's talk about this sensibly[00:00:56]

We're not insensitive[00:00:59]

I know progress has no patience[00:01:03]

But something's got to give[00:01:08]

I know you're different[00:01:13]

You know I'm the same[00:01:15]

We're both too busy[00:01:17]

To be taking the blame[00:01:18]

I'd like some changes[00:01:21]

But you don't have the time[00:01:23]

We can't go on thinking[00:01:25]

It's a victimless crime[00:01:27]

No one is blameless[00:01:29]

But we're all without shame[00:01:32]

We fight the fire[00:01:37]

While we're[00:01:40]

Feeding the flames[00:01:41]

Folks have got to make choices[00:01:46]

And choices got to have voices[00:01:49]

Folks are basically decent[00:01:53]

Conventional wisdom would say[00:01:57]

Well we read about[00:02:02]

The exceptions[00:02:03]

In the papers every day[00:02:06]

It ought to be second nature[00:02:12]

At least that's what I feel[00:02:15]

Now I lay me down in Dreamland[00:02:19]

I know perfect's not for real[00:02:23]

I thought we might get closer[00:02:28]

But I'm ready to make a deal[00:02:32]

Today is different[00:02:37]

And tomorrow the same[00:02:39]

It's hard to take the world[00:02:41]

The way that it came[00:02:43]

Too many rapids[00:02:45]

Keep us sweeping along[00:02:47]

Too many captains[00:02:49]

Keep on steering us wrong[00:02:50]

It's hard to take the heat[00:02:53]

It's hard to lay blame[00:02:57]

To fight the fire[00:03:01]

While we're[00:03:04]

Feeding the flames[00:03:05]

It ought to be second nature[00:03:44]

At least that's what I feel[00:03:47]

Now I lay me down in Dreamland[00:03:51]

I know perfect's not for real[00:03:55]

I thought we might get closer[00:03:59]
