A modern day warrior Mean, mean stride Today's Tom Sawyer Mean, mean pride Though his mind is not for rent Don't put him down as arrogant He reserves the quiet defense Riding out the day's events The river What you say about his company Is what you say about society Catch the mist, catch the myth Catch the mystery, catch the drift The world is, the world is Love and life are deep Maybe as his skies are wide Today's Tom Sawyer He gets by on you And the space he invades He gets by on you No, his mind is not for rent To any God or government Always hopeful yet discontent He knows changes aren't permanent But change is What you say about his company Is what you say about society Catch the witness, catch the wit Catch the spirit, catch the spit The world is, the world is Love and life are deep Maybe as his eyes are wide Exit the warrior Today's Tom Sawyer He gets by on you And the energy you trade He gets right on to the friction of the day

reading this part gave me chills.... "The band chose this song as their concert opener for their 2002 Vapor Trails tour, something they had never done before. After all the trauma and tough times endured by the personal loses of Neil Peart (wife and daughter dying within a year of each other) and the possibility of the band being done for, they believed "Tom Sawyer" would send the message that they were back to stay. They usually introduced the song with a 1 to 4 count, but for Vapor Trails, there was no count, at least not in the usual sense. Peart gave the signal: he simply closed his Hi Hat cymbal pedal with his foot, and this gave the band the signal to silently count the start of the song. This can be seen in the Rush In Rio DVD - before the concert starts you hear a muted cymbal sound that starts the count."

And then after intermission... it was One Little Victory to open the second set. The perfect song to compliment Tom Sawyer by saying, "HE'S BACK!!! and WE'RE back... and until the end, whatever the end might be..." Little did we know, nor could have predicted to be back in 2002...

I know many people like Geddy's voice, I don't. I always wonder if Rush would have been better with a different vocalist. Thank you for the instrumental version of this song. I do believe Geddy is one of the best bass guitar players. Perhaps they didn't want to employ another person to sing?
