Losing It ( Perdendo ) - RUSH

The dancer slows her frantic pace
In pain and desperation,
Her aching limbs and downcast face
Aglow with perspiration.

Stiff as wire, her lungs on fire,
With just the briefest pause -
Then flooding through her memory,
The echoes of old applause.

She limps across the floor
And closes her bedroom door...

The writer stares with glassy eyes -
Defies the empty page,
His beard is white, his face is lined
And streaked with tears of rage.

Thirty years ago, how the words would flow
With passion and precision,
But now his mind is dark and dulled
By sickness and indecision.

And he stares out the kitchen door
Where the sun will rise no more...

Some are born to move the world -
To live their fantasies
But most of us just dream about
The things we'd like to be

Sadder still to watch it die
Than never to have known it
For you - the blind who once could see -
The bell tolls for thee...


A bailarina desacelera seu passo frenético
Em dor e desespero,
Seus membros doloridos e rosto deprimido
Brilham com a transpiração.

Rígida como um arame, seus pulmões em fogo,
Apenas com a mais breve pausa -
Então se inundando em sua memória,
Os ecos de velhos aplausos.

Ela manca pelo chão
E fecha a porta de seu quarto...

O escritor olha com olhos inexpressivos -
Desafia a página vazia,
Sua barba está branca, seu rosto está coberto
E riscado com lágrimas de ódio.

Trinta anos atrás, como as palavras fluiriam
Com paixão e precisão,
Mas agora sua mente está escura e apagada
Pela doença e indecisão.

E ele olha pela janela da cozinha
Onde o sol não mais se levantará...

Alguns nascem para mover o mundo -
Para viver suas fantasias
Mas a maioria de nós apenas sonha com
As coisas que gostaríamos de ser

Mais triste ainda ver isto morrer
Do que nunca tê-lo conhecido
Por você - o cego que já pôde ver -
O sino dobra por ti...
