FALSE AWAKENING SUITE Music by John Petrucci and Jordan Rudess

i. Sleep Paralysis ii. Night Terrors iii. Lucid Dream

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 I’m 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 I’m running from the enemy inside Looking for the life I left behind These suffocating memories Are etched upon my mind And I can’t 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 I’m not dying

I’m running from the enemy inside Looking for the life I left behind These suffocating memories Are etched upon my mind And I can’t escape from the enemy inside I’m a burden I’m a travesty I’m a prisoner of regret Between the flashbacks 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 I’m running from the enemy inside Looking for the life I left behind These suffocating memories Are etched upon my mind And I can’t escape from the enemy inside

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

You are caught up in your gravity Bathing in the spotlight Imitating fame

All that you protected doesn’t matter anymore Rather be stripped of all your pride Than watch your dreams be cast aside

You live without shame You’re digging up a gold mine Standing on the sidelines Watching through the looking glass

You are caught up in your gravity Glorifying stardom Singing your own praise You live without shame You’re 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 fifteen minutes have expired Too much attention much too soon Don’t see you walking on the moon

You are caught up in your gravity Glorifying madness Singing your own praise You live without shame You’re digging up a gold mine Standing on the sidelines Watching through the looking glass You live without shame You’re 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 find the river through the rain And I’ll reach the water’s edge Shed your light on me Be my eyes when I can’t see Shed your light on me Be my guide so I can see The bigger picture Like a moth burned by the fire I’m driven to the flame (Prophecy’s a blessing and a curse) I must bear this cross alone There’s no one else to blame With each treasure found Another shipwreck’s washed ashore I am carried by the current on a slow and steady course

Shed your light on me Be my eyes when I can’t 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 can’t find 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 don’t believe Wounds that never heal A heart that cannot feel A dream that’s all too real A stare as cold as steel

I’ve listened to the stories of resentment and disdain I’ve looked into the empty eyes of anger, fear and shame I’ve 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 finding courage In my darkest hour I am bent not broken Calling out Someone save me Look behind the veil Please don’t walk away Someone save me Bring me home tonight I can’t face another day

Can you see the stranger Hiding in plain sight Feeding on the chaos When the lightning strikes There is no redemption There’s no being saved There is no salvation For a soul depraved You are finding promise In your finest hour You are bent not broken Calling out Someone save me Look behind the veil Please don’t walk away Someone save me Bring me home tonight I can’t face another day Someone save me Look behind the veil Please don’t walk away Someone save me Bring me home tonight I can’t 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 reflection Helps me decide I believe The sacrifices in life Give more than they take Visions flowing 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

Life gives you brighter days Through sacrifices made My spirit travels like the wind and waves My heart and mind unite Mistakes resolved give sight The river’s 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 find my way

Love Show the way Alter my state of mind Wash away the sorrow

Restless angels Help me find my strength Restless angels Help me find my way

Grace Lead the way When boundaries are found Surrender to reason

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 vision’s unclear Blind to the truth Like hands reaching out in the darkness I can’t stop the world from turning around Or the pull of the moon on the tide But I don’t believe that we’re in this alone I believe we’re along for the ride I believe we’re along for the ride Through the gift of surrender I’m embracing the fight Breaking the code There’s clarity on the horizon

I can’t stop the world from turning around Or the pull of the moon on the tide But I don’t believe that we’re in this alone I believe we’re along for the ride I believe we’re 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 can’t stop the world from turning around Or the pull of the moon on the tide But I don’t believe that we’re in this alone I believe we’re along for the ride I can’t stop the world from turning around Or the pull of the moon on the tide But I don’t believe that we’re in this alone I believe we’re along for the ride I believe we’re along for the ride I believe we’re along for the ride

ILLUMINATION THEORY

When your back’s against the wall And your time’s uncertain

Music by John Petrucci, Jordan Rudess, John Myung, James LaBrie and Mike Mangini / Lyrics by John Petrucci

Consider this question No standing by When flesh and blood are threatened What are you willing to kill for

i. Paradoxe de la Lumière Noire

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 reflection What are you willing to die 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 fleeting I would rather die believing Chancing it all in a final 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

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 You’ll never know that you’re alive
