SINGER: Dream Theater

SONG:Endless Sacrifice (amended)

Cold,
lying in my bed
staring into darkness.
Lost,
i hear footsteps overhead,
and my thoughts return
again.
Like a child who's run away
and won't be coming back.
time keeps passing by,
as night turns into day.
I'm so far away
and so alone.
i need to see your face
to keep me sane
to make we whole.
Try to stay alive,
until i hear your voice.
i'm gonna lose my mind,
someone tell me why
i chose this life,
this superficial lie,
constant compromise
endless sacrifice.
Pain,
it saddens me to know
the helplessness you feel.
your light
shines on my soul,
while a thousand candles
burn.
Outside this barren room,
the rain is pouring down.
the emptiness inside,
is growing deeper still.
You're so far away
and so alone.
you long for love's embrace,
to keep you sane
to make you whole.
Try to stay alive,
until i hear your voice.
i'm gonna lose my mind,
someone tell me why
i chose this life,
this superficial lie,
constant compromise
endless sacrifice.
Moments wasted,
isolated,
time escaping,
endless sacrifice.
Moments wasted,
isolated,
time escaping,
endless sacrifice.
[long instrumental break]
Over the distance,
we try to make sense
of surviving together
while living apart.
Striving for balance,
we rise to the challenge
of staying connected,
in spite of circumstance.
All you've forsaken
and all that you've done,
so that i could live out
this undying dream.
Won't be forgotten,
or taken for granted.
i'll always remember
your endless sacrifice.
Moments wasted,
isolated,
time escaping,
endless sacrifice.
Moments wasted,
isolated,
time escaping,
endless sacrifice.
