Dream Theater
Scene Six: Home
[Instrumental Intro 00:00-02:38]
[Verse 1: The Sleeper]
Shine, lake of fire!
Lines take me higher
My mind drips desire
Confined and overtired
[Pre-Chorus: The Sleeper]
Living this charade
Is getting me nowhere
I can’t shake this charade
The city’s cold blood calls me home
Home, it’s what I long for
Back home where I belong!
[Chorus: The Sleeper]
The city, it calls to me!
Decadent scenes from my memory
Sorrow, eternity
My demons are coming to drown me
Help, I’m falling, I’m crawling
I can’t keep away from its clutch
Can’t have it, this habit
It’s calling me back to my home
[Instrumental Break 04:49-05:18]
[Spoken Interlude: The Miracle]
I remember the first time she came to me
She poured her soul out all night and cried
I remember I was told there’s a new love that’s born
For each one that has died
[Verse 2: The Miracle]
I never thought that I
Could carry on with this lie
But I can’t resist myself
No matter how hard I try!
[Pre-Chorus: The Miracle]
Living their other life
Is getting them nowhere
I’ll make her my wife
Her sweet temptation calls me home
Home, it’s what I long for
My home, where she belongs!
[Chorus: The Miracle]
Her ecstasy, means so much to me
Even deceiving my own blood
Victoria watches and thoughtfully smiles
She’s taking me to my home
Help, he’s my brother, but I love her
I can’t keep away from her touch
Deception, dishonor
It’s calling me back to my home
[Instrumental Break 07:23-10:23]
[Keyboard Solo]
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus: Nicholas]
Her story, it holds the key
Unlocking dreams from my memory
Solving this mystery
Is everything that is a part of me
Help, regression, obsession
Can’t keep away from its clutch
Leave no doubt, to find out
It’s calling me back to my home
