作词 : Petrucci, John 作曲 : Rudess, Jordan / Portnoy, Michael / Myung, John Ro / Petrucci, John A nightmare to remember I'll never be the same What began as laughter So soon will turn to pain The sky was clear and pretty The air was thick and still Now I'm not one to soon forget And I'll bet I never will Picture for a moment The perfect irony A flawless new beginning Eclipsed by tragedy The uninvited stranger Started dancing on his own So we said goodbye to the growing pride And we made our way back home Life was so simple then We were so innocent Father and mother Holding each other Without warning, out of nowhere Like a bullet, from the night Crashing glass, rubber and steel Scorching fire, glowing light Screams of terror, pain of fear Sounds of silence, smoke in my eyes Silent stillness, blackened silence No more screaming, no more cries Stunned and bewildered Cold and afraid Torn up and broken Frightened and dazed Lying on the table, in some familiar place I'm greeted by a stranger, a man without a face He said "Son, do you remember, do you even know your name?" Then he shined a light into my eyes and said "Take this for the pain" Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony I am endlessly falling, lost in this wonderful misery In peaceful sedation I lay half awake And all of the panic inside starts to fade Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony "Tell me does this hurt you?" said the faceless man “ "Can you move all of your fingers, can you try your best to stand?" “ I asked about the others "Is everyone okay?" He told me not to worry, as he turned and looked away Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony I am endlessly falling, lost in this wonderful misery In peaceful sedation I lay half awake And all of the panic inside starts to fade Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony Day after day, and night after night We play out the events, did they ever see the red light? Over and over, scene by scene Like a recurring nightmare, haunted by dreams How can you prepare, for what would happen next? No son should ever have to see his father in such a mess It's a miracle he lived, it's a blessing no one died By the grace of god above, everyone survived Hooouh!! Life was so simple then We were so innocent It will stay with us forever A nightmare to remember
