Dream theater - scarred
To Rise, To Fall.
To Hurt, To Hate.
To Want, To Wait.
To Heal, To Save.
Cant hear it
we fear it
awareness wont come near it
Distractive
Reactive
Disguised in spite of time
I never bared my emotion
My passion always strong
I never lost my devotion
but somewhere fate went wrong
Cant let them rape me again
Your venoms not family here
wont let them fill me with
fatalistic remedies
What if the rest of the world
was hopelessly blinded by fear ?
Where would my sanctity live?
Suddenly nobody cares.
Its never enough
Youre wasting your time
Isnt there something I could say?
You dont understand
Youre closing me out
How can we live our lives this way?
You tell me Im wrong
Im risking my life
Still, I have nothing in return
I show you my hands
You dont see the scars
Maybe youll leave me here to burn.
What if the rest of the world
was hopelessly drowning in vain?
Where would our self pity run?
Suddenly everyone cares.
Blood...Heal me
Fear...Change me
Belief will always save me
Blood...Swearing
Fear...Staring
Conviction made aware
Give up on misery
Turn your back on dissent
Leave their distrust behind
Wash your hands of regret
Do you feel you dont know me anymore?
And do you feel Im afraid of your love?
And how come you dont want me asking?
And how come my hearts not invited?
You say you want everyone happy
Well, were not laughing.
And how come you dont understand me?
And how come I dont understand you?
Thirty years say were in this together
So open your eyes.
People in prayer for me
everyone there for me
Sometimes I feel I should face this alone
My soul exposed
It calms me to know that I wont
Blood...Heal me
Fear...Change me
Belief will always save me
Blood...Swearing
Fear...Staring
Conviction made aware
Give up on misery
Turn your back on dissent
Leave their distrust behind
Wash your hands of regret
Blood...Heal me
Fear...Change me
Belief will always save me
Blood...Swearing
Fear...Staring
Conviction made aware
Learning from misery
Staring back at dissent
Leaving distrust behind
Im inspired and content
