[00:01.120] 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]
