Luyện nghe bài hát 2112 (RUSH cover)

"2112" was written by Geddy Lee, 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 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 or reading a Temple Paper 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, the surviving planets
were banded together under the Red Star of the Federation. The less
fortunate us a few new moons.
I what I was told. I thought it was a good life, I thought I was
happy. I found something that changed it all..."

I.
"And the meek shall the earth."

II. The Temples of
... "The massive grey walls of the Temples rise from the of every
Federation city. I have always been awed by them, to think every single
facet of 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..."
We've taken care of
The you hear the songs you sing
The pictures that give pleasure to your
one for all and all for one
We work together sons
Never need to how or why

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Yes, we know nothing new

We no need for ancient ways
The world is fine

The race of man
Forget about silly whim
It fit the plan, no!

I can't believe saying
These things just can't be
Our world use this beauty
Just think we might do

And hear it can do
There's here as strong as life
I know that it will you

Don't us further
We have our to do
Just think about the
use have they for you?

Another toy will help
The elder of man
Forget about silly whim
It doesn't fit the

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 the incredible beauty of the sculptured cities and the pure
spirit of man revealed in the lives and works of world. I was overwhelmed
by both and understanding 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 become with the loss of all things ..."

I wandered home the silent streets
And fell into a fitful
Escape to realms beyond the
Dream you show me the light?

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

I see the works of gifted
That grace this strange and wondrous
I see the of man arise
With hungry and open eyes

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

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

The sleep is in my eyes
The dream is in my head
I a sigh and sadly smile
And lie a in bed
I wish it might come to pass
Not fade all my dreams

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

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