The Theater Equation ACT 1, Scene 2 – Day two: Isolation (Live in Rotterdam) Lyrics by Ayreon

The Theater Equation

2016

[Me: James LaBrie]
I can't move, can't feel my body
I don't remember anything
What place is this, how did I get here?
I don't understand, what's happening
Am I alone?
[Fear: Anneke van Giersbergen]
You've been deserted, everyone has left you
You know it's always been that way
Those frantic years, the people you've neglected
Now the time has come to pay
You're alone
No one here is dancing to your tune
[Me: James LaBrie]
Is this a dream or is it real?
[Reason: Eric Clayton]
Sometimes the dream becomes reality
[Me: James LaBrie]
But I don't know what to feel
[Reason: Eric Clayton]
Then I will guide you through this haze
[Me: James LaBrie]
But who are you, why are you here?
[Reason: Eric Clayton]
I am you and you are all of us
[Me: James LaBrie]
I can't think, my mind ain't clear
[Reason: Eric Clayton]
Then I will free you from this maze
[Passion: Irene Jansen]
Can't you feel it burn
Deep down inside?
Won't you ever learn
Don't try to hide
Can't you feel that fire
Scorching your soul?
A wounded man's desire
Out of control
[Pride: Magnus Ekwall]
I can't believe you're giving up
That's not your way
I can't believe you'd pass the chance to make them pay
You've always had complete control
Never thinking twice
You always called the shots, a heart as cold as ice
[Me: James LaBrie]
You are delusions of my mind
[Reason: Eric Clayton]
And so we are, we're all a part of you
[Me: James LaBrie]
Am I a part of some design?
[Reason: Eric Clayton]
The one design is in your head
[Me: James LaBrie]
How can it be, you look so real
[Reason: Eric Clayton]
We are as real as you imagine us
[Me: James LaBrie]
I can touch you, I can feel
[Reason: Eric Clayton]
Then take my hand and follow me
[Passion: Irene Jansen]
Can't you feel it burn
Deep down inside?
Won't you ever learn
Don't try to hide
Can't you feel that fire
Scorching your soul?
A wounded man's desire
Out of control
[Pride: Magnus Ekwall]
I can't believe you're giving up
That's not your way
I can't believe you'd pass the chance to make them pay
You've always had complete control
Never thinking twice
You always called the shots, a heart as cold as ice
[Love: Heather Findlay]
Close your eyes, listen to your heart beat
Surrender to its soothing pulse
Silence the cries, gentle and carefree
Good or bad, true or false
You're not alone
You'll find me here whenever they oppose you
And I am the strongest of them all
No need to fear these feelings that enclose you
I'm here to catch you when you fall
You're not alone
I am here, dancing to your tune
[Me: James LaBrie]
I can't hear!
Why can't I hear?
This is all so strange...
[Solo]
[Passion: Irene Jansen & Epic Rock Choir]
Can't you feel it burn
Deep down inside?
Won't you ever learn
Don't try to hide
Can't you feel that fire
Scorching your soul?
A wounded man's desire
Out of control
[Epic Rock Choir]
I can't believe you're giving up
[Pride: Magnus Ekwall]
(I can't believe)
[Epic Rock Choir]
That's not your way
[Pride: Magnus Ekwall]
(No)
[Epic Rock Choir]
I can't believe you'd pass the chance to make them pay
[Pride: Magnus Ekwall]
(To make them pay)
[Epic Rock Choir]
You've always had complete control
Never thinking twice
You always called the shots, a heart as cold as ice
