Distance is a long-range filter...Memory a flickering light
Just a few words, in a song, that are so meaningful. What is time? Time is distance. Distance not just me to you, but the larger view of time. The earth rotates around the sun, the sun around the galaxy, the galaxy around the universe. So as days go by we forget most things that happen on a daily basis, which is the long range filter. We remember events, places, people, smells, etc. stored in our brain somewhere still "flickering". How does Neil use so few words for so much meaning? Rush songs to me are so much more than just music and words. I look at things differently sometimes through Neil's lyrics and Rush's music.
