Rush - Totem Lyrics
I've got twelve disciples and a Buddha smile
Garden of Allah, Viking Valhalla
A miracle once in a while
I've got a pantheon of animals in a pagan soul
Dance around my totem pole
Totem pole...
I believe in what I see
I believe in what I hear
I believe that what I'm feeling
Changes how the world appears
Angels and demons dancing in my head
Lunatics and monsters underneath my bed
Pop culture prophets playing in my ears
I've got celestial mechanics
To synchronize my stars
Seasonal migrations, daily variations
World of the unlikely and bizarre
I've got idols and icons, unspoken holy vows
Thoughts to keep well-hidden
Sacred and forbidden
Free to browse among the holy cows
That's why I believe
Angels and demons inside of me
Saviors and Satans all around me
Sweet chariot, swing low, coming for me

This album is the best damn thing
Is it just me or are the next three albums after this one sound a lot like this one? Kind of like what happened in the 80s from signals on or in the 70s from 2112 on
I feel like the albums AFTER T4E weren't the same at all.
This entire album was a massive comeback to the roots of Rock for Rush. When I first heard this album in '96, I was floored. It remains one of my top three fav albums. And this song _shreds._ #RushFan4Life
My favorite song on the album!
For me too
This is one of the best Rush tunes of all time since September 1996. Awesome album and tour. The first Rush show with no opening act. 3 hrs played 2112 in it's entirety. Niel Peart played traditional grip for the album and played it live and most of the drum solo. Then tragically,Neil lost his daughter and wife within 10 months 😔
We should all be greatful he came back at all. I am... Knowing Rush is over Sucks but I understand it. Neil has a family and he doesn't want to rip the fans off. So better to go out while you can still kick ass instead of missing fills because he can't play them. (Last tour by the end Neil left out the big fill around the kit in 'Presentation"2112,) he played fills the same except longer and up down and back up and down the kit in the beginning of R40 from CWA
CosmicJazzman Muise Truth. So sad though. Ahh
TheMisterD00D yes it is. Like all thing good and bad,come to an end. Life;live each day like it's your last. You never know,it just might be! I'm talking life not partying! Wich is more than ok too!😎
Best song on this album
deke76. I love dog years
Great album. The great thing about Rush is every era from the 70s to now is awesome. Every direction they took was amazing.
Donald Merriweather This is MY favorite album. I didnt care for the Power Windows late 80s but thats the exception for me. And I know its good for what it is.
TheMisterD00D I also like the RESURGENCE AFTER THE 80s with all Rush did afterwards. Not saying that I didn't like the 80s , but all after that got better and better !!!!!!!!
What are you talking about EVERY Rush album is amazing.
I love this damn album...
Love it
quick bass and nice writing = nice groove!!!
You got that right!
Angels and demns....!¥¥₩₩)&
