Falling Into Infinity

A single star behind me, a red sky burns ahead. A lonely light below me, awake among the dead. An overwhelming feeling leaves me numb and strange. A sense of new beginning, I sense a wind of change. Out with the old useless people so cold ruthless. Welcome in a new Millennium! How many times must I live out this nightmare? I can't wait until a new Millennium! I've got this feeling, the tide is turning now, baby! Funny feeling, everything's gonna be alright now. Living out a constant déjà vu. Keep your head up! Please be patient we will get to you. Keep your head up! Just have some faith and you can see it through. Keep your head up! But faith don't pay the rent that's overdue. Keep your head up! All that's glittering is turning blue. Keep your head up! What they want from me, ain't gotta clue. Keep your head up! Swallow pride before it swallows you. Keep your head up! Don't dare bite the hand that's starving you. Keep your head up! How can you keep your head and not go insane, when the only light at the end of the tunnel is another train? The lies, ten feet tall, have broken my fall. Welcome you all, new Millennium. It's well overdue and I can't wait to welcome in a new Millennium. I've got this feeling, the tide is turning now, baby! Funny feeling, everything's gonna be alright now...

Being around you is driving me crazy, watching you run is making me lazy. You're trying to buy a place in my head, telling me lines I've already read. Speaking my name to try to confuse me. Say it again, you're starting to lose me. That's alright, I'm okay, it happens every single day. It's all the same but I'm not blind. It's all about you not me! It's all about the things that you're expecting me to be. There's not enough time to live and all that you're expecting me to give. It's all about you not me, it's all about you not me. You're building my prison brick by brick, eating your words is making me sick. You get what you want because nothing is sacred, you're reading my mind and leaving me naked. You say I gotta give before I receive it. One of these days I'll believe it. It's all about you not me! It's all about the things that you're expecting me to be. There's not enough time to live and all that you're expecting me to give. It's all about you not me, it's all about you not me. That's alright, I'm okay, it happens every single day. It's all the same but I'm not blind. It's all about you not me! It's all about the things that you're expecting me to be. There's not enough time to live and all that you're expecting me to give. It's all about you not me, it's all about you not me. It's all about you not me!

There, there it is! I swear he's gonna murder that poor kid. Wait, I hear it again! Don't turn on the lights until we hear the way it ends. Under peruvian skies Vanessa regretfully waits. The story unfolds in her eyes, where midnight hysteria's no big surprise. Battered and bruised, always confusing the love that she's losing for hate. Poor Vanessa, poor, poor Vanessa! Hey, I hope you know I'm taking all of this with me when I go. Shame, you're not to blame! I'm the monster you created in your daddy's name. Under peruvian skies Vanessa regretfully waits. The story unfolds in her eyes, where midnight hysteria's no big surprise. Battered and bruised, always confusing the love that she's losing for hate. Poor Vanessa! Poor Vanessa! Terror by night, liar by day. Telling her secrets won't take them away. Under peruvian skies Vanessa regretfully waits. The story unfolds in her eyes, where midnight hysteria's no big surprise. Battered and bruised, always confusing the love that she's losing for hate.

A thorn in my side, a chip on my shoulder. A lump in my throat, the size of a boulder. The chill up my spine can't get any colder, and you wonder why I can't smile? A knot in my gut, an ape on my back. In the heat of the moment I'm knocked off the track. You drop the ball, I pick up the slack, and you ask me why my hairs gray? Twisting, turning, losing all sense of yearning. Living and learning, the pressure keeps on burning my soul! Burning my soul... I say it's green and then you tell me it's red, keep your thoughts and ideas locked inside of your head. We've got someone who can think for you instead, and he sounds just like the last one. Twisting, turning, losing all sense of yearning. Living and learning, the pressure keeps on burning my soul! Burning my soul... Responsible thinkers throw caution to the wind, but I find myself speaking from within. I can't live my life walking on eggshells to stay on your good side. Using your words, controlling my life. Can't you see it's my words that gives you your life So I hurt your feelings, well I'm really sorry. But I don't give a shit! No! Twisting, turning, losing all sense of yearning. Living and learning, the pressure keeps on burning my soul! Burning my soul...

This track is instrumental.

Is this song not instrumental?

Sometimes for a moment of bliss, and the passion we're craving, there's a message we miss. Sometimes when the spirits left alone, we must believe in something to find if we've grown. Tragic reflex, shattered calm. Static progress, senses gone. Numb awareness, final psalm! Swept away with the tide through the holes in my hands. Crown of thorns at my side, drawing lines in the sand. Sometimes, if you're perfectly still, you can hear the virgin weeping for the savior of your will. Sometimes your castles in the air, and the fantasies you're seeking are the crosses you bear. Sacred conflict, blessed prize. Weeping crosses, stainless eyes. Desperate addict, faith disguised. Swept away with the tide through the holes in my hands. Crown of thorns at my side, drawing lines in the sand. We fabricate our demons, invite them into our homes. Have supper with the alien and fight the war alone. We conjure up our skeletons, enlist the den of thieves. Frightened from our closets then sewn upon our sleeves. In the stream of consciousness there is a river crying. Living comes much easier, once we admit we're dying. Sometimes, in the wreckage of our wake, There's a bitterness we harbor and hate for hatred's sake. Sometimes we dig an early grave and crucify our instincts for the hope we couldn't save. Sometimes a view from sinless eyes, centers our perspective and pacifies our cries. Sometimes the anguish we survive and the mysteries we nurture are the fabrics of our lives. Swept away with the tide through the holes in my hands. Crown of thorns at my side, drawing lines in the sand.

-Dedicated to John E. Petrucci Sr.- I was sitting on the edge of his bed, staring at the headlines on the paper. He said "Look at poor Gene Kelly, I guess he won't be singing in the rain." You can take away my heroes, can you take away my pain? Take away my pain, leave the cold outside, please don't let it rain, don't stumble on my pride. Take away my pain, I'm not frightened anymore, just stay with me tonight, I'm tired of this fight. Soon I'll be knocking at your door! She was standing by the edge of his bed, staring at the message on their faces. He said "What else can you do, babe? I guess I won't be coming home again." They just took away all my promises, make them take away my pain! Take away my pain, leave the cold outside, please don't let it rain, don't stumble on my pride. Take away my pain, I'm not frightened anymore, just stay with me tonight, I'm tired of this fight. Soon I'll be knocking at your door! His final scene, the actor bows and all those years are gone somehow. The crowd applauds, the curtain falls. I was standing by the edge of the water, I noticed my reflection in the waves. Then I saw you looking back at me and I knew that for a moment you were calling out my name. You took away my hero, will you take away my pain? Take away my pain, let the cold inside, it's time to let it rain, there's nothing left to hide. Take away my pain, I'm not frightened anymore. I'm learning to survive without you in my life until you come knocking at my door!

Open your eyes and turn off your mind, step right up folks and you will find. A growing trend, an epidemic. Spread with Zen and hypodermics. Just close your mind, you can find all you need with your eyes. The big machines take care of you until you kill yourself. And then the sales go through the roof, calculated, formulated. Feed my head with simple thoughts and let me breathe instead of being taught, all bottled up and tearing at the seams. I'm bored, just let me breathe. A daily dose of eMpTyV will flush your mind right down the drain. Shannon Hoon and Kurt Cobain, make yourself a household name. Just close your mind, you can find all you need with your eyes. The big machines take care of you until you kill yourself. And then the sales go through the roof, calculated, formulated. Feed my head with simple thoughts and let me breathe instead of being taught, all bottled up and tearing at the seams. I'm bored, just let me breathe. Strike up your best angst ridden posture, manufactured anger! Let's not forget my legacy, all my heroes have failed me. Now they're dead and buried! Just close your mind, you can find all you need with your eyes. The big machines will take care of you until the fashion fades and the checks go through. My bankroll's red and my face is blue, and still they'll turn their backs on you for someone new. Feed my head with some real thoughts And let me think instead of being taught, I'll say things you won't believe. Just stand back, just let me breathe!

Helpless child, they invite your hands to fill their needs. Will you be the same? Shameless smile to steal from you the innocence that bleeds. Will they feel your pain? Trying to believe, the scars unseen, the tears wash clean. You don't wanna breathe the air you breathe. You don't know how you'll live a life alone. She keeps holding on, holding on to you. Let her breathe the air, don't wanna be alone. Where do you belong, Anna Lee? Behind those eyes, the vivid scene, a lucid dream within, questioned secrets are revealed. And everytime you can't deny the lines that trace your skin, wounds that never heal. Trying to believe, the scars unseen, the tears wash clean. You don't wanna breathe the air you breathe. You don't know how you'll live a life alone. She keeps holding on, holding on to you. Let her breathe the air, don't wanna be alone. Where do you belong, Anna Lee? And now she's calling out a name, can't keep on hiding all her pain. You feel the rain move in as you begin to turn and answer the call. Trying to believe, the scars unseen, the tears wash clean. You don't wanna breathe the air you breathe. You don't know how you'll live a life alone. She keeps holding on, holding on to you. Let her breathe the air, don't wanna be alone. Where do you belong, Anna Lee?

I. It's Raining Under the sun, there is nothing to hide Under the moon, the stranger waits inside People disappear, the music fades away Splashing through the rain, I'll dream with them one day It's raining, raining on the streets of New York City It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven I may have wasted all those years They're not worth their time in tears I may have spent too long in darkness In the warmth of my fears Take a look at yourself, not at anyone else And tell me what you see I know the air is cold, I know the streets are cruel But I'll enjoy the ride today It's raining, raining on the streets of New York City It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven Raining deep in heaven I may have wasted all those years They're not worth their time in tears I may have spent too long in darkness In the warmth of my fears And as I walk through all my myths Rising and sinking like the waves With my thoughts wrapped around me Through a trial of tears Hidden by disguise, stumbling in a world Feeling uninspired, he gets into his car Not within his eyes to see, open up, open up Not much better than the man you hate II. Deep in Heaven III. The Wasteland Still awake, I continue to move along Cultivating my own nonsense Welcome to the wasteland Where you'll find ashes, nothing but ashes Still awake, bringing change, bringing movement, bringing life A silent prayer thrown away, disappearing in the air Rising, sinking, raining deep inside me Nowhere to turn, I look for a way back home It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven
