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 fashbacks 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

iii. Lucid Dream
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 ffteen 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
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 fnd 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 fre
Im driven to the fame
(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
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 fnd 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
BEHIND THE VEIL
Music by John Petrucci, Jordan Rudess, John Myung,
James LaBrie and Mike Mangini / Lyrics by John Petrucci
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 fnding 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
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 fnding promise
In your fnest 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
SURRENDER TO REASON
Music by John Petrucci, Jordan Rudess, John Myung,
James LaBrie and Mike Mangini / Lyrics by John Myung
In moments of pain
Where heart and mind collide
Self refection
Helps me decide
I believe
The sacrifces in life
Give more than they take
Visions fowing 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
Life gives you brighter days
Through sacrifces 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 fnd my way
Restless angels
Help me fnd my strength
Restless angels
Help me fnd my way
Restless angels
Let love show the way
Let grace lead the way
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 fght
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
i. Paradoxe de la Lumire Noire
When your backs against the wall
And your times uncertain
Consider this question
No standing by
When fesh 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 feeting
I would rather die believing
Chancing it all in a fnal 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
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 refection
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
