Lyrics:<br />
<br />
I. OVERTURE <br />
------------------------------------------------------------- <br />
"And the meek shall inherit the earth." <br />
<br />
II. THE TEMPLES OF SYRINX <br />
------------------------------------------------------------- <br />
<br />
We've taken care of everything <br />
The words you hear the songs you sing <br />
The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes. <br />
<br />
It's one for all and all for one <br />
We work together common sons <br />
Never need to wonder how or why. <br />
<br />
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx <br />
Our great computers fill the hallowed halls. <br />
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx <br />
All the gifts of life are held within our walls. <br />
<br />
Look around this world we made <br />
Equality our stock in trade <br />
Come and join the Brotherhood of Man <br />
Oh what a nice contented world <br />
Let the banners be unfurled <br />
Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand. <br />
<br />
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx <br />
Our great computers fill the hallowed halls. <br />
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx <br />
All the gifts of life are held within our walls. <br />
<br />
Lyrics by Neil Peart <br />

III. DISCOVERY <br />
------------------------------------------------------------- <br />
<br />
What can this strange device be? <br />
When I touch it, it gives forth a sound <br />
It's got wires that vibrate and give music <br />
What can this thing be that I found? <br />
<br />
See how it sings like a sad heart <br />
And joyously screams out its pain <br />
Chords that build high like a mountain <br />
Or notes that fall gently like rain. <br />
<br />
I can't wait to share this new wonder <br />
The people will all see its light <br />
Let them all make their own music <br />
The Priests praise my name on this night. <br />
<br />
Lyrics by Neil Peart <br />
Music by Alex Lifeson <br />

IV. PRESENTATION <br />
------------------------------------------------------------- <br />
I know it's most unusual <br />
To come before you so <br />
But I've found an ancient miracle <br />
I thought that you should know <br />
<br />
Listen to my music <br />
And hear what it can do <br />
There's something here as strong as life <br />
I know that it will reach you. <br />
<br />
The Priests: <br />
<br />
Yes, we know it's nothing new <br />
It's just a waste of time <br />
We have no need for ancient ways <br />
The world is doing fine <br />
<br />
Another toy will help destroy <br />
The elder race of man <br />
Forget about your silly whim <br />
It doesn't fit the plan. <br />
<br />
I can't believe you're saying <br />
These things just can't be true <br />
Our world could use this beauty <br />
Just think what we might do. <br />
<br />
Listen to my music <br />
And hear what it can do <br />
There's something here as strong as life <br />
I know that it will reach you. <br />
<br />
The Priests: <br />
<br />
Don't annoy us further <br />
We have our work to do. <br />
Just think about the average <br />
What use have they for you? <br />
<br />
Another toy will help destroy <br />
The elder race of man <br />
Forget about your silly whim <br />
It doesn't fit the plan. <br />
<br />
Lyrics by Neil Peart <br />
Music by Alex Lifeson <br />
<br />
V. ORACLE: THE DREAM <br />
------------------------------------------------------------- <br />
I wandered home though the silent streets <br />
And fell into a fitful sleep <br />
Escape to realms beyond the night <br />
Dream can't you show me the light? <br />
<br />
I stand atop a spiral stair <br />
An oracle confronts me there <br />
He leads me on light years away <br />
Through astral nights, galactic days <br />
<br />
I see the works of gifted hands <br />
That grace this strange and wondrous land <br />
I see the hand of man arise <br />
With hungry mind and open eyes <br />
<br />
They left the planet long ago <br />
The elder race still learn and grow <br />
Their power grows with purpose strong <br />
To claim the home where they belong <br />
Home, to tear the Temples down... <br />
Home, to change.. <br />
<br />
Lyrics by Neil Peart <br />
Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson <br />
<br />
VI. SOLILOQUY <br />
------------------------------------------------------------- <br />
The sleep is still in my eyes <br />
The dream is still in my head <br />
I heave a sigh and sadly smile <br />
And lie a while in bed <br />
I wish that it might come to pass <br />
Not fade like all my dreams <br />
<br />
Just think of what my life might be <br />
In a world like I have seen <br />
I don't think I can carry on <br />
Carry on this cold and empty life <br />
Oh...noo. <br />
<br />
My spirits are low in the depths of despair <br />
My lifeblood spills over.. <br />
<br />
VII. GRAND FINALE<br />
