어릴적에 본 톰소여는 돈키호테같은 느낌이었는데... 세상을 살아보니 그런 치기어린 모험이 경험은 됐겠지만 정답을 주지는 않더라구요.
현명하게 살자구요
Tom Sawyer
A modern day warrior
Mean, mean stride
Today's Tom Sawyer
Mean, mean pride
Though his mind is not for rent
Don't put him down as arrogant
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day's events
The river
What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Catch the mystery, catch the drift
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies are wide
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the space he invades
He gets by on you
No his mind is not for rent
To any god or government
Always hopeful, yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is
What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the witness, catch the wit
Catch the spirit, catch the spit
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his eyes are wide
Exit the warrior
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the energy you trade
He gets right on to the friction of the day
골육종을 이기지 못하고 세상을 떴던 닐 피어트의 부고소식을 듣고 한동안 멍했던 기억이 납니다.
젊었을 때는 게디 리와 닐 피어트의 신들린 연주에 넋을 놓고 들었던 러시의 음악이었는데 어느 순간 부터는 연주 이상으로 가사들의 메시지가 더 와닫는 것 같네요.
