FALSE AWAKENING SUITE


Music by John Petrucci and Jordan Rudess

i. Sleep Paralysis ii. Night Terrors iii. Lucid Dream

THE ENEMY INSIDE


Music by John Petrucci, Jordan Rudess, John Myung, James LaBrie and Mike Mangini / Lyrics by John Petrucci

Over and over again I relive the moment Im bearing the burden within Open wounds hidden under my skin Pain as real as a cut that bleeds The face I see every time I try to sleep Is staring at me crying Im running from the enemy inside Looking for the life I left behind These suffocating memories Are etched upon my mind And I cant escape from the enemy inside I sever myself from the world And shut down completely All alone in my own living hell Overcome with irrational fear Under the weight of the world on my chest I buckle and break as I try to catch my breath Tell me Im not dying

Im running from the enemy inside Looking for the life I left behind These suffocating memories Are etched upon my mind And I cant escape from the enemy inside Im a burden Im a travesty Im a prisoner of regret Between the flashbacks and the violent dreams I am hanging on the edge Disaster lurks around the bend Paradise came to an end And no magic pill Can bring it back again Im running from the enemy inside Looking for the life I left behind These suffocating memories Are etched upon my mind And I cant escape from the enemy inside

THE LOOKING GLASS


Music by John Petrucci, Jordan Rudess, John Myung, James LaBrie and Mike Mangini / Lyrics by John Petrucci

I would not expect you felt unnoticed and ignored Better to rise above the clouds Than be a stranger in the crowd All that you protected doesnt matter anymore Rather be stripped of all your pride Than watch your dreams be cast aside You are caught up in your gravity Glorifying stardom Singing your own praise You live without shame Youre digging up a gold mine Standing on the sidelines Watching through the looking glass You are not content with being nameless and unknown Trying to rise above the fray Eager to give it all away Some will not admit their fifteen minutes have expired Too much attention much too soon Dont see you walking on the moon

You are caught up in your gravity Bathing in the spotlight Imitating fame You live without shame Youre digging up a gold mine Standing on the sidelines Watching through the looking glass You are caught up in your gravity Glorifying madness Singing your own praise You live without shame Youre digging up a gold mine Standing on the sidelines Watching through the looking glass You live without shame Youre digging up a gold mine Standing on the sidelines Watching through the looking glass

ENIGMA MACHINE
Music by John Petrucci, Jordan Rudess, John Myung and Mike Mangini

THE BIGGER PICTURE


Music by John Petrucci, Jordan Rudess, John Myung, James LaBrie and Mike Mangini / Lyrics by John Petrucci

Shed your light on me Be my eyes when I cant see Shed your light on me Be my guide so I can see The bigger picture What if caught in a moment I get lost And cant find my way What if all along I was wrong At every turn In every way Would you talk me off the ledge Or let me take the fall Better to try and fail then to never try at all You look but cannot see Talk but never speak You live but cannot breathe See but dont believe Wounds that never heal A heart that cannot feel A dream thats all too real A stare as cold as steel

Ive listened to the stories of resentment and disdain Ive looked into the empty eyes of anger, fear and shame Ive taken blood from every stone And traveled every road When I see the distant lights illuminate the night Then I will know I am home

Long before the colors start to bleed I can see the painting come alive Clever like an angel in disguise Moving in and out of reach If the candle lights this crooked path Like a lighthouse peering through the haze I will find the river through the rain And Ill reach the waters edge Shed your light on me Be my eyes when I cant see Shed your light on me Be my guide so I can see The bigger picture Like a moth burned by the fire Im driven to the flame (Prophecys a blessing and a curse) I must bear this cross alone Theres no one else to blame With each treasure found Another shipwrecks washed ashore I am carried by the current on a slow and steady course

BEHIND THE VEIL


Music by John Petrucci, Jordan Rudess, John Myung, James LaBrie and Mike Mangini / Lyrics by John Petrucci

Can you see the stranger Hiding in plain sight Feeding on the chaos When the lightning strikes There is no redemption Theres no being saved There is no salvation For a soul depraved You are finding promise In your finest hour You are bent not broken Calling out Someone save me Look behind the veil Please dont walk away Someone save me Bring me home tonight I cant face another day Someone save me Look behind the veil Please dont walk away Someone save me Bring me home tonight I cant face another day

What would possess you to justify such dark and twisted ways What kind of monster will come to the feast when the devil shows his face What does it take for a life to change and a mind to lose control Who will be left here to suffer and blame After all the lies you told I am finding courage In my darkest hour I am bent not broken Calling out Someone save me Look behind the veil Please dont walk away Someone save me Bring me home tonight I cant face another day

SURRENDER TO REASON
Music by John Petrucci, Jordan Rudess, John Myung, James LaBrie and Mike Mangini / Lyrics by John Myung

Life gives you brighter days Through sacrifices made My spirit travels like the wind and waves My heart and mind unite Mistakes resolved give sight The rivers current slowly turns the stone Love Show the way Alter my state of mind Wash away the sorrow Grace Lead the way When boundaries are found Surrender to reason Restless angels Help me find my way Restless angels Help me find my strength Restless angels Help me find my way Restless angels Let love show the way Let grace lead the way Surrender to reason

In moments of pain Where heart and mind collide Self reflection Helps me decide I believe The sacrifices in life Give more than they take Visions flowing slowly shedding light Memories swimming in the sea of time Pieces to the puzzle falling into place That with which we struggle through We learn to embrace Love Show the way Alter my state of mind Wash away the sorrow Grace Lead the way When boundaries are found Surrender to reason

ALONG FOR THE RIDE


Music by John Petrucci and Jordan Rudess Lyrics by John Petrucci

At this moment words fail me And my visions unclear Blind to the truth Like hands reaching out in the darkness I cant stop the world from turning around Or the pull of the moon on the tide But I dont believe that were in this alone I believe were along for the ride I believe were along for the ride Through the gift of surrender Im embracing the fight Breaking the code Theres clarity on the horizon

I cant stop the world from turning around Or the pull of the moon on the tide But I dont believe that were in this alone I believe were along for the ride I believe were along for the ride I will not live under a shadow of fear Never be crippled by chaos and doubt Fall prey to your madness I am not shattered Out of the ashes I rise Knowing that nothing is stronger than faith Finding hope in our hopeless lives I cant stop the world from turning around Or the pull of the moon on the tide But I dont believe that were in this alone I believe were along for the ride I cant stop the world from turning around Or the pull of the moon on the tide But I dont believe that were in this alone I believe were along for the ride I believe were along for the ride I believe were along for the ride

ILLUMINATION THEORY
Music by John Petrucci, Jordan Rudess, John Myung, James LaBrie and Mike Mangini / Lyrics by John Petrucci

When your backs against the wall And your times uncertain Consider this question No standing by When flesh and blood are threatened What are you willing to kill for We seek To understand We cry With head in hand The bridges we build to connect The distance that makes us forget Hate dividing us Love reminding us of our shared humanity Hope can be a shadow fleeting I would rather die believing Chancing it all in a final act of faith We seek To understand We cry With head in hand A story that needs to be told An answer that begs to be found The beauty we wish to behold Is never too far away

iii. The Embracing Circle iv. The Pursuit of Truth


Mothers for their children Husbands for their wives Martyrs for the kingdom Fighting for your life A soldier for his country A junkie for the high Teachers for their students Vengeance for a crime Rebels for their freedom A tyrant for the praise Cowards for salvation Money, love and fame Noble and brave We lay down our lives for the cause Death over shame Grace before glory

i. Paradoxe de la Lumire Noire

ii. Live, Die, Kill


Consider this question Look deep inside Deliver a true confession What are you willing to live for Consider this question Open your eyes Examine your own reflection What are you willing to die for

v. Surrender, Trust & Passion


To really feel the joy in life You must suffer through the pain When you surrender to the light You can face the darkest days If you open up your eyes And you put your trust in love On those cold and endless nights You will never be alone Passion glows within your heart Like a furnace burning bright Until you struggle through the dark Youll never know that youre alive
