I. Prelude
II. Resurrection

I saw a white light
Shining there before me
Walking to it
I waited for the end
A final vision
Promising salvation
A resurrection
For a fallen man

Do you still wait for your God
And the symbol of your faith?

I can free you from this Hell and misery
You should never be ashamed, my son
I can give you power beyond anything
Trust me you will be the chosen one

I was forgotten
A body scorned and broken
My soul rejected
Taken by his blood
Beyond redemption
I said I'm not worth saving

Forever taken
From the one I loved

Do I still wait for my God
And a symbol of my faith?

I can lead you down the path and back to life
All I ask is that you worship me
I can help you seek revenge and save yourself
Give you life for all eternity

Servants of the fallen
Fight to pave the way
For their saviour's calling
Of this wicked day
Through a veil of madness
With a vicious play
One man rises on
Standing in their way

Redemption
Redemption for humanity

Lyrics:Petrucci Music:Dream Theater

For a while I thought I fell asleep
Lying motionless inside a dream

Then rising suddenly
I felt a chilling breath upon me
She softly whispered in my ear
(Forsaken)

Forsaken
I have come for you tonight
Awaken
Look in my eyes and take my hand
Give yourself up to me

I waited faithfully
For night to fall again
Trying to silence the fear within me

Out of the night and mist
I felt a stinging kiss
And saw a crimson sting on her lips

I have to know your name

Where have I seen your face before
My dear why don't you be afraid

Forsaken
I have come for you tonight
Awaken
Look in my eyes and take my hand
Give yourself up to me
Take me far away
Close your eyes
And hold your breath
'Til the ends of the earth

Forsaken
I have come for you tonight
Awaken
Look in my eyes and take my hand
Forsaken
Fly away with me tonight
Awaken
Renew my life
Now you are mine
Give yourself up to me

Lyrics:Portnoy Music:Dream Theater

Tunnel vision at blinding speed
Controlling my thoughts, obsessing me
Void of any uncertainty
Throughout my very soul

Lost illusions of my control
Resisting all hope of letting go
Racing impulse of dark desire
Drives me through the night

I try to shut it down
It leaves me in the dust
No matter what I've found
I can never get enough

Frantic actions of insanity
Impulsive laced profanity
Long for elusive serenity
Way out of my control

Traveling through both space and time
(Out of body, out of mind)
Out of control
My wheels in constant motion

Spinning round and round it goes
(I can't let up, I can't let go)
Can't stop this flame from burning
Forever more
Into the night
Blistering

Focus here, focus there
Cannot see the light
(Falling down through the night)
Sprawling everywhere

Searching left, searching right
(Panic setting in, I can no longer fight)
When will this end?

Accelerate, dislocate
(Set to crash and burn, haven't got time to waste)
Not planning to return

Aggravate, agitate
(When will I ever learn?)
There's no way out of here

Nowhere to turn

Obsessive yearning
Compulsive burning
Still never learning
Insane random thoughts of neat disorder

Scattered wasteland surrounding me
Tattered memories of what used to be

Apocalyptic mind debris
Until we meet again
Uhh!

Traveling through both space and time
(Out of body, out of mind)
Out of control
My wheels in constant motion

Spinning round and round it goes
(I can't let up, I can't let go)
Can't stop this flame from burning
Forever more
Into the night
Blistering

Traveling through both space and time
(Out of body, out of mind)
Out of control
My wheels in constant motion

Spinning round and round it goes
(I can't let up, I can't let go)
Can't stop this flame from burning
Can't stop the wheels from turning

Traveling through both space and time
(You get yours, and I got mine)
Out of control
My wheels in constant motion

Spinning round and round it goes
(I can't let up, I can't let go)
Can't stop this flame from burning
Forever more
Into the night
Blistering

Lyrics:Petrucci Music:Dream Theater

No one dared to
Speak of the terrible danger
The hideous ancient warnings
Forged in the void of night

He has risen up
Out of the blackness
Chaos belongs to the prophet's sinister
A sickening monstrous sight

Through the stifling heat underneath the pale green moon
Hungered with the thirst to see things not yet seen
Climbing endless stairs, leading to the choking room
Eager to explore this most shocking mystery

Drifting beyond all time
Out of a churning sky
Drawn to the beckoning light
Of the dark eternal night

Black forces
Rage in a vortex, fighting
Rays of destruction swallowing
The emblem of the universe

I am the last
Born of the blood of the pharaohs
The ultimate god of all-creation
Sent to unleash this curse

Restless crowds draw near
Nameless hooded forms appear
(Amidst fallen ruins
Grotesque creatures battle)
Shadowed on a screen
Yellow evil faces leer
(Vacant monuments
Corpses of dead worlds left behind)

Drifting beyond all time
Out of a churning sky
Drawn to the beckoning light
Of the dark eternal night

Trapped in a hellish dream
Spinning past worlds unseen
And frightfully vanishing
Into the dark eternal night

Drifting beyond all time
Out of a churning sky
Drawn to the beckoning light
Of the dark eternal night

Trapped in a hellish dream
Spinning past worlds unseen
And frightfully vanishing
Into the dark eternal night

Lyrics:Portnoy Music:Dream Theater

VIII. Regret
IX. Restitution

(Hello, mirror
So glad to see you my friend
It's been a while)

Staring at the empty page before me
All the years of wreckage running through my head
Patterns of my life I thought I don't be ?
Revealing hurt for shame and deep lament

Overwhelming sorrow now absorbs me
As the pen begins to trace my darkest past
Signs throughout my life that should have warned me
Of all the wrongs I've done for which I must repent

I once thought it better to regret
Things that I have done when haven't

Sometimes you've got to be wrong
Learn the hard way
Sometimes you've got to be strong
When you think it's too late

Staring at the finished page before me
All the damage now so clear and evident
Thinking 'bout the dreaded task in store for me
A bitter fear at the thought of my amends

Hoping that the step will help restore me
To face my past and ask for forgiveness
Cleaning up my dirty side of this unswept street
Could this be the beginning of the end

I once thought it better to regret
Things that I have done when haven't

Sometimes you've got to be wrong
Learn the hard way
Just when you're through hanging on
You're saved

(Voices Confessing)

"If we are painstaking about this phase of our development
We will be amazed before we are half way through
We are going to know a new freedom and a new happiness
We will not regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it
We will comprehend the word serenity and we will know peace
No matter how far down the scale we have gone
We will see how our experience can benefit others
That feeling of uselessness and self-pity will disappear
We will lose interest in selfish things
And gain interest in our fellows.
Self-seeking will slip away
Our whole attitude and outlook upon life will change.
Fear of people and of economic insecurity will leave us.
We will intuitively know how to handle situations
Which used to baffle us
We will suddenly realize that
God is doing for us what we could not do for ourselves"

You're only as sick as your secrets
But the truth will set you free
The truth is the truth
And all you can do is live with it

Lyrics:Labrie Music:Dream Theater

It burns deep down inside of me
We have ourselves to blame
Not questioning, accepted as the truth

Debate this fight, it's just cause
The facts do not support theirs
To liberate a people
And rid them of tyrant rule

Is it time to make the change
are we closer than before
Can we help them break away
Are we profiting from War?
It's time to make the change

Catch your attention
Since the exception
Fight for a reason
Can we clean up this mess
The loss of loved one's ignorance request
They can't move us in rhetoric
These derelicts that profit win or lose.

Is it time to make the change
Are we closer than before
Can we help them break away
Are we profiting from War?
It's time to make the change

.People Screaming.
(Time for change
Fight the fear

Find the truth
Time for change)

The only thing that I believe
Will help us see this through is faith
Pray they will forgive
Forgive our arrogance
So we can make it right
Right for they have wronged

Is it time to make the change
Are we closer than before
Can we help them break away
Are we profiting from War?

Is it time to make the change
Are we closer than before
Can we help them break away
Are we profiting from War?

Is it time to make a change
A change from what it's been,
Can we help them break away,
Is our patience wearing thin?
It's time to make a change

.People Screaming.
(Time for change
Fight the fear
Find the truth
Time for change)

Lyrics:Petrucci Music:Dream Theater

The water's edge
Is where she waits
Lost soul still wondering

Meant to die
But she's stuck
Not crossing over

The other side
Is where he waits
His spirit reaching out

Meant to save
But she's too scared
To take his hand

Living in a world without you (drowning in the past)
Is living in no world at all
So now I call on you

Remember me
I gave you life
You would not take it

Your suffering
Was all in vain?
It's almost over now
Don't turn your back on paradise

Feeling scared
She's prepared
To give up everything

She can't stand
To feel like half of her is fading

He will choose
The only way
To rid her of her pain

Take her soul now
The decision has been made

Living in a world without love (burning into my soul)
Ss living in a wordless world
So I will call on you

Remember me
I gave you life

You would not take it

Your suffering
was all in vain?
It's almost over

Remember me
You were so young
How could I tell you?

Remember me
I am the one
Who saved your life that night

I was the one who would not abandon you
Even in death I was the one who would not leave you

I used my freedom to protect you
And all the while direct you
Do you remember me this time
Even in death I gave you life
I gave you life

(Instrumental section)

Wanted to
Deserve a place
A place beside you

This time when I
Reach out my hand
It reached all the way
To heaven

Remember me
I gave you life
You would not take it

Your suffering
Was all in vain?
It's almost over now

Goodbye
It's almost over now

Goodbye
It's time
I release you from this life
Don't turn your back on paradise

Lyrics:Petrucci Music:Dream Theater

III. Heretic
IV. The Slaughter of the Damned
V. The Reckoning
VI. Salvation

Welcome tired pilgrim
Into the circle
We have been waiting
Everyone's gathered for your arrival
All the believers

Angels fall, all for you, heretic
Demon heart bleed for us

I've been waiting for you,
Weary preacher man
You have been expected
Now we can begin
Let this hollow day of judgment break
I have known you father,
And your sacred quest
Blessed soldier fighting
You shall never rest
I have known you, but do you know me?

Angels fall, all for you, heretic
Demon heart bleed for us
(My soul is yours dark master, I will fight for you)
Dark master within, I will fight for you
Dark master of sin, now my soul is yours
Dark master, my guide, I will die for you
Dark master inside…

I cannot see his face
But I could feel despite
A presence from the dead
Abandoned by the light
His shadow will consume you from within
This power that I sense
Been raged behind those eyes
This justice straddling ghost
A spirit deep inside
The body and the soul both frets
For they are one

Angels fall, all for you, heretic
Demon heart bleed for us
(My soul is yours dark master, I will fight for you)
Dark master within, I will fight for you
Dark master of sin, now my soul is yours
Dark master, my guide, I will die for you
Dark master inside…
Dark master, I'm in, I belong to you
Dark master within…

Heil! Heil! Heil! Heil!
Heil! Heil! Heil! Heil!

Don't
Bother trying to find them
They will be coming to you
Fight,
Fight and destroy until you can't take anymore
Spill,
Hey! Spill the blood of rebels
They are the terror of hell
Flesh,

I'm being dead
Stopping at nothing to kill
Saint,
Caught in a moment of weakness
Ended the greatness of all
Sold,
Half of my soul
And now I'm still waiting for you

I judge us, my eyes see
I judge and I am just
For I speak of the beast
That lives in all of us
Unwelcome ones your time has come

Lord,
You are my god and my shepherd
Nothing more shall I want
War,
Through the abyss
Into the shadow of death

Fear,
There is no reason to fear now
While you are with me
My,
Couple of flows
My enemy's blood
I,
Get in the house of the lord
Forever, amen
Death,
Follow me
Oh, the wish of my life

I judge us, my eyes see
I judge and I am just
For I speak of the beast
That lives in all of us
Unwelcome one your time has come

Servants of the fallen
Fight to make the way
For the savior's calling
On this wicked day
Through a veil of madness
With a vicious play
One man marches on
Standing in the way
(It's time to go, dark lord)

My soul grows weaker
He knows and he waits
He watches over me
Standing at the inferno gates
In the hour of darkness
The moment I feared has passed
The moment I lost my faith
Promising salvation
My soul is my own now
I do not fight for you, dark master
