bend the clock

Dream Theater

Worn down, wearing thin
Hellish dreams, tormenting scenes
Shadows looming
I m paralyzed, can t move
Scared and confused

If I, if I could bend the clock
The passageway of time
Leave it all behind
No more, no more paralyzing dreams
The midnight screams always haunting me
But I sink deeper each day

Cold, hallowed place
Dark shadows, vast haunting landscapes
In a frantic state
Tired of feeling lost, alone and out of place

This circle I can t break
Every night, lie comatose
But wide awake
I m paralyzed again
Darkness creeping in

If I, if I could bend the clock
The passageway of time
Leave it all behind
No more, no more paralyzing dreams
The midnight screams always haunting me
But I sink further today

The witching hour begins
Can t escape, I find myself again
Prisoner in the end
Sinking further than I ve ever been

And if I, if I could bend the clock
The passageway of time
A better place I d find
And no more, no more paralyzing dreams
The midnight screams break this hold on me

But I can t get away
Can t find my way
Sinking further every day
