One Last Time

One Last Time
Music By Dreamtheater
Album Scenes From Memory





It doesn`t make any sense

This tragic ending

In spite of the evidence

There`s something still missing



Heard some of the rumours told

A taste of one`s wealth

Did Victoria wound his soul?

Did she bid him farewell?


Reff:

One last time

We`ll lay down today

One last time

Until we fade away

One last time

We`ll lay down today

One last time

We slowly fade away




Here I am inside his home

It holds the many clues

To my suspicions

And as I`m standing here right now

I`m finally shown what I have always known



Coincidence I can`t belive

As my childhood dreams alowly come true



Are these her memories

Awakened through my eyes

This house has brought back to life



An open door

I walk on through

Into his bedroom



Feeling as cold as outside

The walls disappear

To some woman who`s screaming

A man pleads forgiveness

His words I cannot hear

Through My Words

Throught My Words
Music By Dreamtheater
Album Scenes of Memory







All your eyes have ever seen

All you`ve ever heard

Is etched upon my memory

I spoken through my words



All that I take with me

Is all you`ve left behind

We`re sharing one eternity

Living in two minds

Linked by an endless thread

Impossible to break

Strange Deja Vu

Strange Deja Vu
Music By Dreamtheater
Album Scenes Of Memory








Subconscious strange sensation

Unconscious relaxation

What a pleasant nightmare

And I can`t wait to get there again



Every time I close my eyes

There`s another vivid surprise

Another whole life waiting

Chapters unfinished, fading



Closer now - Slowly coming into view

I`ve arrived - Blinding sunshine beaming through



There`s a house I`m drawn into

Familiar settings, nothing new

There`s a pathway leading there

With a haunting chill in the air



There`s room at the top of the stairs

Every night I`m drawn up there

There`s a girl in the mirror

Her face is getting clearer

Young child won`t you tell me why I`m here?



In her eyes -I sense a story never told

Behinde the disguise - There`s something tearing

At her soul



Tonight I`ve been searching for it

A feeling that`s deep inside m

Tonight I`ve been searching for

The one that nobody knows

Trying to break free



I just can`t help myself

I`m feeling like I`m going out of my head

Tears my heart into two

I`m not the one the sleeper thought he knew



Back on my feet again

Eyes open to real world

Metropolis surrounds me

The mirror`s shattered the girl



Why is this other life

Haunting me everyday

I`d break through the other side

If only I`d find the way



Something`s awfully familiar

The feeling`s so hard to shake

Could I have lived in that other world

It`s a link that I`m destined to make



I`m still searching but I don`t know what for

The missing key to unlock my mind`s door



Today I am searching for it

A feeling that won`t go away

Today I am searching for it

The only one I know

Trying to break free



I just can`t help myself

I`m feeling like I`m going out of my head

Tears my soul into two

I`m not the one I thought I always knew



I just can`t help myself

I`m feeling like I`m going out of my head

Uncanny, strange Deja Vu

But I don`t mind - I hope to find the truth

Shine-lake of fire

Lines take me higher

My mind drips desire

Confined and overtired



Living this charade

Is getting me nowhere

I can`t shake this charade

The city`s cold blood calls me home

Home it`s what I long for

Back somewhere I belong



The city - it calls me

Decadent scenes from my memory

Sorrow - eternity

My demons are coming to drown me



Help - I`m falling, I`m crawling

I can`t keep away from its clutch

Can`t have it, this habit

It`s calling me back to my home



I remember the first time she came to me

Poured her soul out all night and cried



I remember I was told there`s a new love that`s born

For each one that has died



I never thought that I

Could carry on with this life

But I can`t resist myself

No matter how hard I try



Living their other life

Is getting them nowhere

I`ll make her my wife

Her sweet temptations calls me home

Home it`s what I long for

My home where she belongs



Her ecstasy - means so much to me

Even decieving my own blood

Victoria watches and thoughtfully smiles

She`s taking me to my home



Help - he`s my brother, but I love her

I can`t keep away from her touch

Deception, dishonor

It`s calling me back to my home




Her story - it holds the key

Unlocking dreams from my memory

Solving this mystery

Is everything that is a part of me



Help - regression, obsession

I can`t keep away from her touch

Leave no doubt, to find out

It`s calling me back to my home

Finally Free

Friday evening
The blood still on my hands
To think that she would leave me now
For that greateful man

Sole survivor
No witness to the crime
I dust act fast to over up
I think that there`s still time

He`d seem hopeless and lost with this note
They`ll buy into the words that I wrong
This feeling inside me
Finally found my love, I`ve finally broke free
No longer torn in two
I`d take my own life before loosing you"

Feeling good this friday afternoon
I ran into Julian
Said we`d get together soon
He`s always had my heart
He needs to know
I`ll break free of the Miracle
It`s time for him to go

This feeling inside me
Finally found my love, I`ve finally broke free
No longer torn in two
He`d kill his brother if he only knew

Their love renewed
They`d rendezvous
In a pathway out of view
They thought no one knew
They came a shot out of the night

One last time
We`ll lay down today
One last time
Until we fade away
One last time
We`ll lay down today
One last time
We slowly fade away

As their bodies lie still
And the ending draws near
Spirits rise through the air
All their fears disappear, it all becomes clear
A blinding light comes into view
An old soul exchanged for a new
A familiar voice comesshining through

This feeling inside me
Finally found my love, I`m finally free
No longer torn in two
I learned about my lie by living through you

This feeling inside me
Finally found my love, I`ve finally broke free
No longer torn in two
Living my own life by learning from you

We`ll meet again my friend someday soon

" news in London, France, Russia and Italy have deleted their lead story, all
anticipating the outcome of the man considered to be a member of American
nobility. And as you can imagine, as the skies have grown darker here over
Washington, the mood has grown darker as well and people here are beginning to
resign themselves to the possibility that they are witnessing yet another
tragedy in a long string of misfortunes. Reaction from everywhere, from
Washington and certainly from around the world has guess..."

"Close your eyes and begin to relax. Take a deep breath, and let it out
slowly. Concentrate on your breathing. With each breath you become more
relaxed. Imagine a brilliant white light above you, focusing on this light as
it flows through your body. Allow yourself to drift off as you fall deeper and
deeper into a more relaxed state of mind. Now as I count backward from ten to
one, you will fill more peaceful, and calm. Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven. Six. You
will enter a safe place where nothing can harm you. Five. Four. Three. Two. If
at any time you need to came back, all you must do is open your eyes. One."

Safe in the light that surrounds me
Free of the fear and the pain
My subconscious mind
Starts spinning through time
To rejoin the past once again

Nothing seems real
I`m starting to feel
Lost in the haze of a dream

And as I draw near
The scene becomes clear
Like watching my life on a screen

Hello Victoria so glad to see you
My friend

Through Her Eyes

Throuht Her Eyes
Music By Dreamtheater
Album Scenes From Memory





She never really had a chance
On that fateful moonlit night
Sacrificed without a fight
A victim of her circumstance

Now that I've become aware
And I've exposed this tragedy
A sadness grows inside of me
It all seems so unfair

I'm learning all about my life
By looking through her eyes

Just beyond the churchyard gates
Where the grass is overgrown

I saw the writing on her stone
I felt like I would suffocate

Inloving memory of our child
So innocent, eyes open wide
I felt so empty as I cried
Like part of me had died

I'm learning all about my life
By looking through her eyes

And as her image
Wandered through my head
I wept just like a baby
As I lay awake in bed

And I know what it's like
To lose someone you love
And this felt just the same

She wasn't given any choice
Desperation stole her voice
I've been given so much more in life
I've got a son, I've got a wife

I had to suffer one last time
To grieve for her and say goodbye
Relive the anguish of my past
To find out who I was at last

The door has opened wide
I'm turning with the tide
Looking through her eyes
