Dream Theater — Surrounded

Текст песни: Surrounded

Surrounded Lyrics[Intro]
Morning comes too early
And nighttime falls too late
And sometimes all I want to do is wait
The shadow I've been hiding in
Has fled from me today

[Verse 1]
I know it's easier to walk away
Than look it in the eye
But I will raise a shelter to the sky
And here beneath this star tonight I'll lie
She will slowly yield the light
As I awaken from the longest night
[Verse 2]
Dreams are shaking
Set sirens waking up tired eyes
With the light the memories
All rush into his head
By a candle stands a mirror
Of his heart and soul she dances
She was dancing through the night above his bed

[Chorus]
And walking to the window
He throws the shutters out against the wall
And from an ivory tower hears her call
"Let light surround you"

[Bridge]
It's been a long, long time
He's had a while to think it over
In the end he only sees the change
Light to dark
Dark to light
Light to dark
Dark to light

[Verse 3]
Heaven must be more than this
When angels waken with a kiss
Sacred hearts won't take the pain
But mine will never be the same
[Chorus]
He stands before the window
His shadow slowly fading from the wall
And from an ivory tower hears her call
"Let the light surround you"

[Verse 4]
Once lost but I was found
When I heard the stained glass shatter all around me
I sent the spirits tumbling down the hill
But I will hold this one on high above me still
She whispers words to clear my mind
I once could see but now at last I'm blind

[Outro]
I know it's easier to walk away
Than look it in the eye
But I had given all that I could take
And now I've only habits left to break
Tonight I'll still be lying here
Surrounded in all the light
