Rush - Double Agent [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Chorus 1]
Where would you rather be?
Anywhere but here
When will the time be right?
Anytime but now

[Chorus 2]
On the edge of sleep, I was drifting for half the night
Anxious and restless, pressed down by the darkness
Bound up and wound up so tight'

[Bridge]
So tight...

So many decisions, a million revisions
Caught between darkness and light...'

[Verse 1]
Wilderness of mirrors
World of polished steel
Gears and iron chains
Turn the grinding wheel
I run between the shadows
Some are phantoms, some are real

[Chorus 1]
Where would you rather be?
Anywhere but here
When will the time be right?
Anytime but now

[Chorus 1]
Where would you rather be?
The doubt and the fear
I know would all disappear
Anywhere but here
Anywhere but here...

[Chorus 2]
On the edge of sleep, I heard voices behind the door
The known and the nameless, familiar and faceless
My angels and my demons at war'

[Bridge]
At war...
Which one will lose depends on what I choose
Or maybe which voice I ignore...'

[Verse 2]
Wilderness of mirrors
Streets of cold desire
My precious sense of honor
Just a shield of rusty wire
I hold against the chaos
And the cross of holy fire

[Verse 3]
Wilderness of mirrors
So easy to deceive
My precious sense of rightness
Is sometimes so naive
So that which I imagine
Is that which I believe

[Chorus 2]
On the edge of sleep, I awoke to a sun so bright
Rested and fearless, cheered by your nearness
I knew which direction was right'

[Bridge]
Was right...

[Outro]
The case had been tried by the jury inside
The choice between darkness and light...
The choice between darkness and light'
