I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

There is trouble with the trees



One of my favorite Rush songs, and something that has been on my mind for a long time. Sometimes the solution can be worse than the cause, but the cause doesn't see there's a need of any solution.
So the maples formed a union and demanded equal rights
'The oaks are just too greedy, we will make them give us light'
Now there's no more oak oppression for they passed a noble law
And the trees are all kept equal by hatchet, axe and saw.
