Luyện nghe bài hát 2112 (RUSH cover)

"2112" was by Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Pert of the band, Rush.

"I lie awake, out at the bleakness of Megadon. City and sky become one,
merging into a single plane, a vast sea of grey. The Twin Moons, just
two orbs as they trace their way across the steely sky. I used to think I
had a pretty good here, just plugging into my machine for the day, then
watching Templevision or reading a Temple in the evening.

"My friend Jon always said it was nicer here than under the atmospheric
of the Outer Planets. We had peace since 2062, when the surviving planets
banded together under the Red Star of the Solar Federation. The less
fortunate us a few new moons.
I believed what I was told. I thought it was a life, I thought I was
happy. Then I found something that it all..."

"And the meek shall the earth."

II. The Temples of
... "The massive grey walls of the Temples rise the heart of every
Federation city. I have always been by them, to think that every single
of every life is regulated and directed from within! Our books, our
music, our work and play are all looked after by the wisdom of the
priests..."

The pictures that give to your eyes

... "Behind my beloved waterfall, in the little room that was beneath
the cave, I found it. I brushed away the dust of the years, and it up,
holding it reverently in my hands. I had no idea what it be, but it was
beautiful" ...
... "I learned to lay my fingers across the wires, and to turn the to make
them sound differently. As I struck the wires with my hand, I produced my
first sounds, and soon my own music! How different it could be from
the music of the Temples! I can't wait to the priests about it! ..."

can this strange device be?
When I touch it, it gives a sound
It's got wires that and give music
What can thing be that I found?

See how it like a sad heart
And joyously screams out its
Sounds that build like a mountain
Or notes that fall gently like

I wait to share this new wonder
The people all see its light
Let them all make their own
The Priests praise my name on night

IV.
... "In the sudden as I finished playing, I looked up to a circle of
grim, expressionless faces. Father Brown rose to his feet, and his
voice echoed throughout the Temple Hall." ...
... "Instead of the grateful joy that I expected, they were of quiet
rejection! Instead of praise, sullen dismissal. I watched in and horror
as Father Brown my precious instrument to splinters beneath his feet..."

V. Oracle: The
... "I guess it was a dream, but even now it all seems so to me. Clearly
yet I see the hand of the oracle as he stood at the summit of the
staircase" ...
... "I see still the incredible beauty of the cities and the pure
spirit of man revealed in the and works of this world. I was overwhelmed
by both wonder and as I saw a completely different way to life, a
way had been crushed by the Federation long ago. I saw now how meaningless
life had with the loss of all these things ..."

I wandered home the silent streets
And into a fitful sleep
Escape to realms the night

Home, to change...

... "I have not left this for days now, it has become my last refuge in my
total despair. I have the music of the waterfall to comfort me now. I can
no longer live the control of the Federation, but there is no other place
to go. My last hope is that with my death I may pass the world of my
dream, and peace at last."

The dream is still in my

And lie a in bed

Not fade all my dreams

Just think of what my life be
In a world like I have

Carry on this and empty life
Oh...noo!

My spirits are low in the of despair
My spills over...
