Whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa, whoa-oh, oh-oh
If we're so much the same like I always hear
Why such different fortunes and fates?
Some of us live in a cloud of fear
Some live behind iron gates
Why such different fortunes and fates?
Some are blessed and some are cursed
Some live behind iron gates
While others see only the worst
Some are blessed and some are cursed
The golden one or scarred from birth
While others only see the worst
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa, whoa-oh, oh-oh
The golden one or scarred from birth
Somethings can never be changed
Such a lot of pain on this earth
It's somehow so badly arranged
Somethings can never be changed
Some reasons will never come clear
It's somehow so badly arranged
If we're so much the same like I always hear
Some are blessed and some are cursed
The golden one or scarred from birth
While others only see the worst
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Some are blessed and some are cursed
The golden one or scarred from birth
While others only see the worst
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa, whoa-oh, oh-oh
Some are blessed and some are cursed
The golden one or scarred from birth
While others only see the worst
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Some are blessed and some are cursed
The golden one or scarred from birth
While others only see the worst
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Such a lot of pain
Such a lot of pain
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Whoa, whoa-oh, oh-oh
If we're so much the same like I always hear
Why such different fortunes and fates?
Some of us live in a cloud of fear
Some live behind iron gates
Why such different fortunes and fates?
Some are blessed and some are cursed
Some live behind iron gates
While others see only the worst
Some are blessed and some are cursed
The golden one or scarred from birth
While others only see the worst
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa, whoa-oh, oh-oh
The golden one or scarred from birth
Somethings can never be changed
Such a lot of pain on this earth
It's somehow so badly arranged
Somethings can never be changed
Some reasons will never come clear
It's somehow so badly arranged
If we're so much the same like I always hear
Some are blessed and some are cursed
The golden one or scarred from birth
While others only see the worst
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Some are blessed and some are cursed
The golden one or scarred from birth
While others only see the worst
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa, whoa-oh, oh-oh
Some are blessed and some are cursed
The golden one or scarred from birth
While others only see the worst
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Some are blessed and some are cursed
The golden one or scarred from birth
While others only see the worst
Such a lot of pain on the earth
Such a lot of pain
Such a lot of pain
Such a lot of pain on the earth

Whose idea was it to make the world as it is now, anyway?
Thank you Rush, Vapor Trails was bad ass but Snakes & Arrows is even better! I'll be shocked if the next album (if there is one) is better than Snakes & Arrows.
Lyrically its pretty simple - and tbh, Rush have already done this whole argument a few times before.
i think the line structure is interesting in that it repeats lines but in different places to where they'd normally be...
definitely not the best on Snakes & Arrows though, but good nonetheless.
and it's pantoum or pantun in indonesia.
pantoum is one of our tradition. i used to play pantoum with my friends.
and my band hero do the pantoum for the album that was great. as indonesian is an honor to me that neil used pantoum for the way he wrote this lyrics
