The Present Tense by Rush
The Present Tense lyrics
Living in the Present Tense
When you lose the past
And the future makes no sense
You're living in the Present Tense
Crawling out, secure and confident
Imbued with innocence
Ready for the whirl
Suddenly the view was more intense
Living in a different kind of world
You're living
Living in the present tense
There's nothing to blame
No victim of consequence
You're living in the Present Tense
Something you said
It made me
Step outside ..the moment
Eyes pan right and left
around my world
Open yourself
Up to the possibility
Aware of some reality
Outside your world
In a silent universe
The moment can be so real
You almost can't stand it
In a distant universe
Distracted from ourselves
You can't help but wonder
In a crowded universe
When the talking turns to noise
You almost start laughing
You're living
Living in the present tense
When you lose the past
And the future makes no sense
You're Living in the Present Tense
Nothing to blame
No victim of consequence
You're living in the Present Tense
