Rush - Closer To The Heart Lyrics






And the men who hold high places
Must be the ones who start
To mold a new reality
Closer to the heart
Closer to the heart
The blacksmith and the artist
Reflect it in their art
They forge their creativity
Closer to the heart
Closer to the heart

Philosophers and ploughmen
Each must know his part
To sow a new mentality
Closer to the heart
Closer to the heart
You can be the captain
I will draw the chart
Sailing into destiny
Closer to the heart

    That time a crazy trailer park resident kidnapped a member of Rush. Ah, simpler times.

  12. A.... W....

    Idc to say that trailer park boys hipped me to this song.

  13. p.... ....

    Weird question, but can someone tell me what the name of that percussion instrument is at the end that sounds remotely like a muted maraca? Used to be used quite abit back in the day. But I don't know what it is.

  14. J.... K....

    Rockin this on the 8 track in the Shitmobile tellin Corey & Trevor smokes lets go drunk on swish. Fuckin way she goes boys

  15. A.... A....

  28. N.... ....

    Well I guess now Neil Pert and John Bonham will be able to finally settle who is the better drummer in a face to face showdown Rest In Peace Neil.....could you just imagine a live performance of XYZ followed by Moby Dick

  29. R.... R....

    Never will there be another Lee, Lifeson and Peart, yet his voice will pierce, Alex's guitar will rip, and Neil crushing sticks on his drums will reverberate far and wide round the world forever. A legend never dies

    My first ever album- was rush - I’m 41 now and still play the drums, Neil pushed me me to always want to be better, I never met him but he pushed me - my fist concert ever was rush, again he pushed me - a life of music because of a man I never met but was encouraged and driven by. We all will miss him. Thank you for everything you did for all of us out here. Peace and happy 2020. - mike

  46. N.... M....

    I've seen a few musicians I listen to pass away over the years but man this has hit me harder than most. Neil was not only one of the best drummers that's ever lived but also an absolutely fantastic lyricist which is something he never got enough credit for imo. Rest easy Neil and enjoy that great drum solo in the sky. Rip Neil Peart.

  51. S.... ....

    I used to walk home everyday from my high school 4.5 miles- go to my room ,put my headphones on and listen to the album Signals every single day. That album blew my mind as did all of the Rush library. R.I.P. Neil “The Professor “ Peart- your wife and daughter are in your loving embrace now. Lots of love to all my Rush fan families out there .

    Thankyou Neil for all your years of raw musical power, energy and majesty. This is not just some Fly By Night band, they will still be listened to in 2112, their music will drift through the ether forever on Permanent Waves, a band that truly captured the Spirit of Radio, the epitome of Grace Under Pressure, a band that was more than just Moving Pictures, they tapped into both Hemispheres of our brains, they showed everyone that All the Worlds a Stage, so now as we turn off the Signals, because Transmission Impossible, it's time to Roll The Bones, and have a Show of Hands, as we say A Farewell to Kings.......... EXIT STAGE LEFT.
    Goodbye Neil, This world misses you.

    J.... C....

    @Gary from GLASGOW yes, so many versions...and they all think they are right...great way to start a war...........

    J.... C....

    Gary from GLASGOW shut the fuck up you religious prick, imagine taking every single word out of a book someone wrote and believing it because it satisfies any concerns over your existence and gives you comfort by assuring that you’ll go to “the better place” after you die, there’s no proof of it and you can’t face reality on your own.

    J.... C....

    Closer to the heart that Abrahamic God does not exist

    J.... C....

    @Rational Humanist does, but not in the sense most think of as a God.

    J.... C....

    All you people. SHYT THE HELL UP ABOUT RELIGION. ENJOY THE ANAZING MUSIC AND FUCK OFF. YOUR ALL STUPID.

  93. P.... ....

    Rest in Peace, Neil Pert

  94. K.... O....
