Lyrics Rush - Vital Signs

Unstable condition:
A symptom of life
In mental,
And environmental

Change
Atmospheric disturbance--
The feverish flux
Of human interface
And interchange

The impulse is pure--
Sometimes our circuits get shorted,
By external interference


Signals get crossed--
And the balance distorted
By internal incoherence

A tired mind become a shape-shifter
Everybody need a mood lifter
Everybody need reverse polarity
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form
Everybody got to deviate
From the norm

An ounce of perception,
A pound of obscure.
Process information at half speed.
Pause, rewind, replay,
Warm memory chip,
Random sample, hold the one you need.

Leave out the fiction--
The fact is;
This friction
Will only be worn by persistence


Leave out conditions--
Courageous convictions
Will drag the dream into existence

A tired mind become a shape-shifter
Everybody need a soft filter
Everybody need reverse polarity
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form
Everybody got to elevate
From the norm
