Lyrics Vital Signs (Live) - Rush

Unstable condition
A symptom of life
In mental and enviromental change
Atmospheric disturbance
The feverish flux
Of human interface and interchange
The impulse is pure
Sometimes our circuits get shortened
By external interference
S-s-signals get crossed
And the balance distorted
By internal incoherence
A tired mind become a shape-shifter
Everybody need a mood lifter
Everybody need reverse polarity
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form
Everybody got to deviate from the norm
An ounce of perception
A pound of obscure
Process information at half speed
Pause, rewind, replay
Warm memory chip
Random sample, hold the one you need
Leave out the fiction
The fact is this friction
Will only be worn by persistence
Leave out conditions
Courageous convictions
Will drag the dream into existence
A tired mind become a shape-shifter
Everybody need a sharp filter
Everybody need reverse polarity
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form
Everybody got to elevate from the norm
Everybody got mixed feelings
Everybody got mixed feelings
Everybody got to deviate from the norm
Everybody got to deviate from the norm
Everybody got to elevate from the norm
Everybody got to elevate from the norm
Everybody got to emancipate from the norm
Everybody got to escalate
Everybody got to elevate from the norm
Well thank you guys
Yeah, it′s hard to believe that's, uh
Almost thirty-one years old
Almost as old as light storm is
Okay, from the old to the new
We′d like to do something from our forthcoming album
This is called "Caravan"
