Here's more interesting things in songs and lyrics tied to Dream Theater or about the 1990s in general.
Just let me catch my breath…
I’ve heard the promises
I’ve seen the mistakes
I’ve had my fair share of tough
breaks
I need a new voice, a new law,
a new way
Take the time, reevaluate
It’s time to pick up the pieces,
Go back to square one
I think it’s time for a change
There is something that I feel
To be something that is real
I feel the heat within my mind
And craft new changes with
my eyes
Giving freely wandering
promises
A place with decisions I’ll
fashion
I won’t waste another breath
You can feel the waves coming on
(It’s time to take the time)
Let them destroy you or carry
you on
(It’s time to take the time)
You’re fighting the weight of
the world
But no one can save you this
time
Close your eyes
You can find all you need in
your mind
The unbroken spirit
Obscured and disquiet
Finds clearness this trial
demands
And at the end of this day sighs
an anxious relief
For the fortune lies still in his
hands
If there’s pensive fear, a
wasted year
A man must learn to cope
If his obsession’s real,
Suppression that he feels must
turn to hope
Life is no more assuring than
love
(It’s time to take the time)
There are no answers from
voices above
(It’s time to take the time)
You’re fighting the weight of
the world
And no one can save you this
time
Close your eyes
You can find all you need in
your mind
I close my eyes
And feel the water rise around
me
Drown the bead of time
Let my senses fall away
I can see much clearer now,
I’m blind
Find all you need in your mind
If you take the time
