Words by neil peart, music by geddy lee and alex lifeson
A boy alone, and so far from home
endless rooftops from my window
i felt the gloom of empty rooms
on rainy afternoons
Sometimes, in confusion
i felt so lost and disillusioned
innocence gave me confidence
to go up against reality
All the same
we take our chances
laughed at by time
tricked by circumstances
plus �a change
plus c'est la m�me chose
the more that things change
the more they stay the same
Now i've gained some understanding
of the only world that we see
things that i once dreamed of
have become reality
These walls that still surround me
still contain the same old me
just one more who's searching for
a world that ought to be
