(Composição: James LaBrie, John Petrucci, John Myung, Jordan Rudess, Mike Mangini) [I. Paradoxe de la Lumière Noire] [Instrumental] [II. Live, Die, Kill] Consider this question Look deep inside Deliver a true confession What are you willing to live for? Consider this question Open your eyes Examine your own reflection What are you willing to die for? When your backs' against the wall And the times uncertain Consider this question No standing by When flesh and blood are threatened What are you willing to kill for? We seek to understand We cry with head in hand The bridges we build to connect The distance that makes us forget Hate dividing us, love reminding us Of our shared humanity Hope can be a shadow fleeting I would rather die believing Chancing it all in a final act of faith We seek to understand We cry with head in hand A story that needs to be told An answer that begs to found The beauty we wish to behold Is never too far away [III. The Embracing Circle] [Instrumental] [IV. The Pursuit Of Truth] Mothers for their children Husbands for their wives Martyrs for the kingdom Fighting for your life A soldier for his country A junkie for the high Teachers for their students Vengeance for a crime Rebels for their freedom A tyrant for the praise Cowards for salvation Money, love, and fame Noble and brave Lay down our lives for the cause Death over shame Grace before glory [V. Surrender, Trust & Passion] To really feel the joy in life You must suffer through the pain When you surrender to the light You can face the darkest days If you open up your eyes And you put your trust in love On those cold and endless nights You will never be alone Passion glows within your heart Like a furnace burning bright Until you struggle through the dark You'll never know that you're alive Never know Never know You'll never know Never know Never know Never know
