[00:07.96] Lyrics: Mike Portnoy
[00:09.73]
[00:13.64] <I. Reflection>
[02:55.96]
[03:04.66] Cunning, Baffling, Powerful
[03:06.75] Been beaten to a pulp
[03:09.06] Vigorous, Irresistable
[03:11.21] Sick and tired and laid low
[03:13.18] Dominating, Invincible
[03:15.72] Black-out, loss of control
[03:17.43] Overwhelming, Unquenchable
[03:19.51] I'm powerless, have to let go
[03:21.34]
[03:21.84] I can't escape it
[03:23.92] It leaves me frail and worn
[03:26.02] Can no longer take it
[03:28.12] Senses tattered and torn
[03:29.92]
[03:30.30] Hopeless surrender
[03:32.41] Obsession's got me beat
[03:34.49] Losing the will to live
[03:36.67] Admitting complete defeat
[03:38.41]
[03:57.61] Fatal Descent
[04:02.45] Spinning around
[04:06.82] I've gone too far
[04:12.35] To turn back round
[04:15.98]
[04:17.27] Desperate attempt
[04:22.19] Stop the progression
[04:27.15] At any length
[04:32.13] Lift this obsession
[04:36.12]
[04:37.42] Crawling to my glass prison
[04:39.98] A place where no one knows
[04:43.33] My secret lonely world begins
[04:47.08]
[04:49.58] So much safer here
[04:51.84] A place where I can go
[04:55.25] To forget about my daily sins
[04:59.72]
[05:00.14] Life here in my glass prison
[05:02.40] A place I once called home
[05:05.91] Fall in nocturnal bliss again
[05:09.68]
[05:12.01] Chasing a long lost friend
[05:14.30] I no longer can control
[05:17.60] Just waiting for this hopelessness to end
[05:21.95]
[06:14.43] <II. Restoration>
[06:14.99]
[06:16.48] Run - fast from the wreckage of the past
[06:20.01] A shattered glass prison wall behind me
[06:23.77] Fight - past walking through the ashes
[06:27.57] A distant oasis before me
[06:30.81]
[06:46.49] Cry - desperate crawling on my knees
[06:49.74] Begging God to please stop the insanity
[06:54.06] Help me - I'm trying to believe
[06:57.15] Stop wallowing in my own self pity
[07:00.71]
[07:01.60] "We've been waiting for you my friend
[07:04.68] The writing's been on the wall
[07:08.79] All it takes is a little faith
[07:12.03] You know you're the same as us all"
[07:14.79]
[07:16.58] Help me - I can't break out this prison all alone
[07:27.44] Save me - I'm drowning and I'm hopeless on my own
[07:38.70] Heal me - I can't restore my sanity alone
[07:47.25]
[08:05.03] Enter the door
[08:05.85] Desperate
[08:06.79] Fighting no more
[08:07.75] Help me restore
[08:09.00] To my sanity
[08:10.17] At this temple of hope
[08:11.62]
[08:12.47] I need to learn
[08:13.34] Teach me how
[08:14.18] Sorrow to burn
[08:15.01] Help me return
[08:15.94] To humanity
[08:17.64] I'll be fearless and thorough
[08:19.17] To enter this temple of hope
[08:20.05]
[08:34.66] Believe
[08:35.62] Transcend the pain
[08:36.84] Living the life
[08:37.85] Humility
[08:39.17] Opened my eyes
[08:40.19] This new odyssey
[08:41.81] Of rigorous honesty
[08:43.19]
[08:43.46] Serenity
[08:44.36] I never knew
[08:45.21] Soundness of mind
[08:46.23] Helped me to find
[08:47.51] Courage to change
[08:48.70] All the things that I can
[08:50.46]
[08:51.89] "We'll help you perform this miracle
[08:55.19] But you must set your past free
[08:59.12] You dug the hole, but you can't bury your sole
[09:02.51] Open your mind and you'll see"
[09:04.97]
[09:06.00] Help me - I can't break out this prison all alone
[09:17.72] Save me - I'm drowning and I'm hopeless on my own
[09:28.83] Heal me - I can't restore my sanity alone
[09:37.50]
[12:48.54] <III. Revelation>
[12:49.49]
[12:51.19] Way off in the distance I saw a door
[12:55.25] I tried to open
[12:58.59] I tried forcing with all of my will and still
[13:02.55] The door wouldn't open
[13:05.16]
[13:06.17] Unable to trust in my faith
[13:08.90] I turned and walked away
[13:13.41] I looked around, felt a chill in the air
[13:16.11] Took my will and turned it over
[13:19.98]
[13:20.81] The glass prison which once held me is now gone
[13:24.75] A long lost fortress
[13:28.17] Armed only with liberty
[13:31.26] And the key of my willingness
[13:34.84]
[13:35.49] Fell down on my knees and prayed
[13:40.17] "Thy will be done"
[13:42.93] I turned around, saw a light shining through
[13:46.46] The door was wide open
[13:50.13]
