Resist

Words by neil peart, music by geddy lee and alex lifeson

I can learn to resist

Anything but temptation

I can learn to co-exist

With anything but pain

I can learn to compromise

Anything but my desires

I can learn to get along

With all the things i can't explain

I can learn to resist

Anything but frustration

I can learn to persist

With anything but aiming low

I can learn to close my eyes

To anything but injustice

I can learn to get along

With all the things i don't know

You can surrender

Without a prayer

But never really pray

Pray without surrender

You can fight

Without ever winning

But never ever win

Without a fight
