fatal tragedy

dream theater

metropolis pt 2: scenes from a memory



music by dream theater

lyrics by john myung



nicholas:

alone at night

i feel so strange

i need to find

all the answers to my dreams



when i sleep at night

i hear the cries

what does this mean?



i shut the door and traveled to another home

i met an older man, he seemed to be alone

i felt that i could trust him

he talked to me that night:



lad did you know a girl was murdered here?

this fatal tragedy was talked about for years

victorias gone forever

only memories remain

she passed away

she was so young



without love

without truth

there can be no turning back



without faith

without hope

there can be no peace of mind



as the night went on

i started to find my way

i learned about a tragedy

a mystery still today



i tried to get more answers

but he said, youre on your own

then he turned away and left me

as i stand there all alone

he said, you'll know the truth

as you future days unfold



without love

without truth

there can be no turning back



without faith

without hope

there can be no peace of mind



hypnotherapist:

now it is time to see how you died

remember that death is not the endbut only a transition
