When every word has been written |
|
When every line has been read |
|
When every person cries for justice |
|
And every partner drops dead |
|
When every loss has been suffered |
|
When every war has been fought |
|
When every son been laid to rest |
|
When every lesson has been taught |
|
There comes a time when you realize |
|
It's all over - sooner or later |
|
All of us together - stop pretending it's not |
|
It's going down - It's going down |
|
Nobody listens - I can't believe it. |
|
(Petrucci solo) |
|
There comes a time when you realize |
|
It's all over - sooner or later |
|
All of us together - stop pretending it's not |
|
It's going down - it's going down |
|
Nobody listens - I can't believe it. |
|
When every breath has been drawn |
|
When every sickness has been shared |
|
When every soul has quit religion |
|
When every priest has run scared |
|
When all the actors take a last bow |
|
When all the big deals have gone down |
|
When every cynic's crucified us |
|
When every mother screams out loud |
|
There comes a time when you realize |
|
It's all over - sooner or later |
|
All of us together - stop pretending it's not |
|
It's going down - it's going down |
|
Nobody listens - I can't believe it. |

(Petrucci solo) |
|
Found asleep at the wheel |
|
Believing in things that are not real |
|
Our reasons more of the same |
|
Pointless encounters - endless cliches |
|
Things escape me time and again |
|
Running in circles while anarchy wins |
|
Not me - I'm not going down |
|
Refuse to sell out or lay down |
|
Fate speaks |
|
Fate speaks loudly |
|
Fate speaks |
|
Fate speaks |
|
Fate speaks loudly |
|
Fate speaks loudly... |
|
(Petrucci solo) |
|
Face my sentence in despair |
|
Pacing the floor - the enemy's there |
|
I'm just so sick and tired of it all |
|
Nothing but commerce |
|
Makes my skin crawl |
|
Fate speaks |
|
Fate speaks loudly |
|
Fate speaks |
|
Fate speaks |
|
Fate speaks loudly |
|
Fate speaks |
|
Fate speaks |
|
Fate speaks loudly |
|
Fate speaks |
|
You think I've lost it |
|
For what I have said |
|
You've got the problem |
|
And it's all in your head |
|
It's just too dark |
|
It's just too real |
|
Don't take for granted |
|
This chance we have to feel |
|
Why do we take it? |
|
We're out of control |
|
We're getting worse now |
|
And we're selling our souls |
|
It's just too dark |
|
It's just too real |
|
Don't take for granted |
|
This chance we have to feel |
|
(Sherinian solo) |
|
(Petrucci solo) |
|
Why do we take it? |
|
We're out of control |
|
We're getting worse now |
|
And we're selling our souls |
|
It's just too dark |
|
It's just too real |
|
Don't take for granted |
|
This chance we have to feel |
|
You think I've lost it |
|
For what I have said |
|
You've got the problem |
|
And it's all in your head |
|
It's just too dark |
|
It's just too real |
|
Don't take for granted |
|
This chance we have to feel... |
