Luyện nghe bài hát 2112 (RUSH cover)

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

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

"My Jon always said it was nicer here than under the atmospheric domes
of the Outer Planets. We have had peace since 2062, when the planets
were banded together under the Red of the Solar Federation. The less
gave us a few new moons.
I believed I was told. I thought it was a good life, I thought I was
happy. Then I found that changed it all..."

I.
"And the shall inherit the earth."

II. The of Syrinx
... "The massive grey walls of the rise from the heart of every
Federation city. I have always awed by them, to think that every single
facet of life is regulated and directed from within! Our books, our
music, our work and are all looked after by the benevolent wisdom of the
priests..."
We've taken care of
The words you hear the songs you
The pictures that give to your eyes
one for all and all for one
We work together common
need to wonder how or why

We are the Priests of the of Syrinx
Our great computers the hallowed halls
We are the Priests of the Temples of
All the of life are held within our walls

Look around this we made
Equality our stock in
Come and join the of Man
Oh a nice contented world
Let the be unfurled
Hold the Red Star proudly high in

We are the Priests of the Temples of
Our great computers fill the halls.
We are the Priests of the of Syrinx
All the gifts of life are held our walls.

III.
... "Behind my beloved waterfall, in the little room that was hidden
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 it might be, but it was
beautiful" ...
... "I learned to lay my fingers across the wires, and to turn the keys to
them sound differently. As I struck the wires my other 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! ..."

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

See how it sings like a sad
And screams out its pain
Sounds that build high a mountain
Or notes that fall like rain

I can't wait to this new wonder
The will all see its light
Let them all their own music
The Priests praise my name on this

IV.
... "In the sudden silence as I finished playing, I 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 I expected, they were words of quiet
rejection! Instead of praise, sullen dismissal. I in shock and horror
as Father Brown my precious instrument to splinters beneath his feet..."

I know most unusual
To before you so
But I've found an ancient
I thought you should know

Listen to my
And what it can do
There's something as strong as life
I that it will reach you

Yes, we know nothing new
It's just a waste of
We have no need for ancient
The is doing fine

Another toy will help
The elder of man
about your silly whim
It fit the plan, no!

I can't believe you're
These just can't be true
Our could use this beauty
Just think we might do

to my music
And what it can do
something here as strong as life
I know that it will you

annoy us further
We our work to do
Just think the average
What use they for you?

Another toy help destroy
The race of man
Forget your silly whim
It fit the plan

V. The Dream
... "I guess it was a dream, but even now it all so vivid to me. Clearly
yet I see the beckoning hand of the oracle as he stood at the of the
staircase" ...
... "I see still the beauty of the sculptured cities and the pure
spirit of man revealed in the lives and of this world. I was overwhelmed
by both wonder and understanding as I saw a different way to life, a
way that had been crushed by the Federation ago. I saw now how meaningless
life had become the loss of all these things ..."

I home though the silent streets
And into a fitful sleep
Escape to realms beyond the
Dream can't you me the light?

I atop a spiral stair
An oracle confronts me
He me on light years away
Through astral nights, days

I see the works of gifted
That grace strange and wondrous land
I see the hand of man
With hungry mind and eyes

They the planet long ago
The elder still learn and grow
Their grows with purpose strong
To claim the home where belong
Home, to tear the down...
Home, to change...

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

The sleep is still in my
The dream is still in my
I a sigh and sadly smile
And lie a in bed
I wish that it might to pass
Not like all my dreams

think of what my life might be
In a world like I seen
I don't think I can on
Carry on this and empty life
Oh...noo!

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

VII. Finale
Attention all Planets of the Federation
Attention all Planets of the Solar
Attention all Planets of the Solar
We assumed control.
We have control.
We have control.
