The Analog Kid
The Rush Lyrics

A hot and windy August afternoon
The weather outside is hot and breezy.

Has the trees in constant motion
The trees are swaying back and forth due to the wind.

With a flash of silver leaves
The sun reflects off the leaves and creates a silver glare.

As they're rocking in the breeze
The leaves are moving due to the wind.

The boy lies in the grass with one blade
A young boy is lying in the grass with a single blade in his mouth.

Stuck between his teeth
The blade of grass is in the boy's mouth, between his teeth.

A vague sensation quickens
The boy feels an uncertain feeling.

In his young and restless heart
The boy's heart is filled with anticipation and restlessness.

And a bright and nameless vision
The boy has an undefined and vibrant idea in his mind.

Has him longing to depart
The boy has a strong desire to leave and go on an adventure.

You move me
The world around me inspires me.

With your buildings and your eyes
The structures and people in this world move and inspire me.

Autumn woods and winter skies
The changing seasons move and inspire me.

Open sea and city lights
The vastness of the ocean and the bright lights of a city inspire me.

Busy streets and dizzy heights
The bustling city environment and high altitudes inspire me.

You call me
This world calls out to me and inspires me to take action.

The fawn-eyed girl with sun-browned legs
The boy has an image in his head of a girl with light brown eyes and tan legs.

Dances on the edge of his dream
The girl is a figment of the boy's imagination that dances at the edge of his dreams.

And her voice rings in his ears
The boy can hear the girl's voice in his head.

Like the music of the spheres
The girl's voice is as beautiful as the music of the universe.

The boy lies in the grass, unmoving
The boy is still lying in the grass, without any movement.

Staring at the sky
The boy is looking up into the sky.

His mother starts to call him
The boy's mother is beginning to yell for him.

As a hawk goes soaring by
A bird of prey flies overhead.

The boy pulls down his baseball cap
The boy puts his cap down over his face.

And covers up his eyes
The boy covers his eyes with his cap.

Too many hands on my time
The boy feels as if he doesn't have enough time to do everything he wants.

Too many feelings
The boy is feeling overwhelmed with emotions.

Too many things on my mind
The boy has too many thoughts and ideas bouncing around in his head.

When I leave, I don't know
When the boy goes out, he is unsure of what he will discover.

What I'm hoping to find
The boy is on a journey to discover something important to him.

When I leave, I don't know
The boy is uncertain about what he will learn from his experiences outside of his normal environment.

What I'm leaving behind
The boy is unsure of what he may lose or miss while he is gone.
