Rush - "The Larger Bowl (A Pantoum)" Live
Cool lyrics after the jump...
A pantoum is a form of poetry in which the second and fourth lines of the first stanza are repeated as the first and third lines of the second stanza and so forth until the last stanza when the first and third lines are repeated as the second and forth lines of the second-to-last stanza. Errrm... Simple! Here are the lyrics:If we're so much the same like I always hearWhy such different fortunes and fates?Some of us live in a cloud of fearSome live behind iron gatesWhy such different fortunes and fates?Some are blessed and some are cursedSome live behind iron gatesWhile others only see the worstSome are blessed and some are cursedThe golden one or scarred from birthWhile others only see the worstSuch a lot of pain on the earthThe golden one or scarred from birthSomethings can never be changedSuch a lot of pain on this earthIt's somehow so badly arrangedSomethings can never be changedSome reasons will never come clearIt's somehow so badly arrangedIf we're so much the same like I always hear(CHORUS breaks the pantoum pattern)Some are blessed and some are cursedThe golden one or scarred from birthWhile others only see the worstSuch a lot of pain on the earth
