Dream Theater - A Nightmare To Remember |
[00:05.890] |
|
[01:20.300] |
A nightmare to remember |
[01:23.710] |
I'll never be the same |
[01:26.820] |
What began as laughter |
[01:29.370] |
So soon will turn to pain |
[01:31.900] |
|
[01:32.480] |
The sky was clear and pretty |
[01:35.330] |
The air was thick and still |
[01:38.240] |
Now I'm not one to soon forget |
[01:41.190] |
And I'll bet I never will |
[01:43.800] |
|
[01:58.590] |
Picture for a moment |
[02:00.930] |
The perfect irony |
[02:03.510] |
A flawless new beginning |
[02:06.330] |
Eclipsed by tragedy |
[02:08.810] |
|
[02:09.280] |
The uninvited stranger |
[02:12.000] |
Started dancing on his own |
[02:14.950] |
So we said goodbye to the growing pride |
[02:17.800] |
And we made our way back home |
[02:20.680] |
|
[02:21.050] |
Life was so simple then |
[02:28.440] |
We were so innocent |
[02:35.160] |
Father and mother |
[02:42.680] |
Holding each other |
[02:50.150] |
|
[03:04.090] |
Without warning, out of nowhere |
[03:07.520] |
Like a bullet, from the night |
[03:10.910] |
Crashing glass, rubber and steel |
[03:14.300] |
Scorching fire, glowing light |
[03:17.830] |
|
[03:18.150] |
Screams of terror, pain of fear |
[03:21.200] |
Sounds of silence, smoke in my eyes |
[03:24.650] |
Silent stillness, blackened silence |
[03:28.370] |
No more screaming, no more cries |
[03:31.630] |
|
[03:31.860] |
Stunned and bewildered |
[03:35.000] |
Cold and afraid |
[03:38.590] |
Torn up and broken |
[03:42.030] |
Frightened and dazed |
[03:45.250] |
|
[03:45.530] |
Stunned and bewildered |
[03:49.160] |
Cold and afraid |
[03:52.730] |
Torn up and broken |
[03:56.150] |
Frightened and dazed |
[03:59.540] |
|
[04:49.520] |
Lying on the table, in some familiar place |
[04:56.580] |
I'm greeted by a stranger, a man without a face |
[05:03.480] |
He said "Son, do you remember, do you even know your name?" |
[05:10.740] |
Then he shined a light into my eyes and said "Take this for the pain" |
[05:18.690] |
|
[05:39.450] |
Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony |
[05:49.000] |
I am endlessly falling, lost in this wonderful misery |
[06:00.200] |
In peaceful sedation I lay half awake |
[06:04.990] |
And all of the panic inside starts to fade |
[06:10.820] |
Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony |
[06:19.580] |
|
[06:32.850] |
"Tell me does this hurt you?" said the faceless man |
[06:38.310] |
"Can you move all of your fingers, can you try your best to stand?" |
[06:44.570] |
I asked about the others "Is everyone okay?" |
[06:50.610] |
He told me not to worry, as he turned and looked away |
[06:56.120] |
|
[06:56.800] |
Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony |
[07:05.780] |
I am endlessly falling, lost in this wonderful misery |
[07:17.040] |
In peaceful sedation I lay half awake |
[07:21.850] |
And all of the panic inside starts to fade |
[07:27.340] |
Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony |
[07:35.810] |
|
[10:22.710] |
Day after day, and night after night |
[10:26.280] |
We play out the events, did they ever see the red light? |
[10:29.940] |
Over and over, scene by scene |
[10:33.840] |
Like a recurring nightmare, haunted by dreams |
[10:37.900] |
How can you prepare, for what would happen next? |
[10:41.510] |
No son should ever have to see his father in such a mess |
[10:45.080] |
It's a miracle he lived, it's a blessing no one died |
[10:48.950] |
By the grace of god above, everyone survived |
[10:52.610] |
Hooouh!! |
[11:26.560] |
|
[12:21.020] |
Life was so simple then |
[12:26.480] |
We were so innocent |
[12:36.260] |
It will stay with us forever |
[12:42.470] |
A nightmare to remember |
[12:59.270] |
