The Theater Equation ACT 2, Scene 1 – Day twelve: Trauma (Live in Rotterdam) Lyrics by Ayreon
The Theater Equation
2016
[Reason: Eric Clayton] Think hard, you are lying here in a hospital bed Disregard the emotions inside your head Concentrate on the real world beyond your mind It's not to late to leave your burdens behind [Fear: Anneke van Giersbergen] We won't let you go Take you down below Dark crypts of your soul Locked inside your head You're better off dead [Agony: Devon Graves] Locked away, she lives in isolation It's been that way, since he has gone She been through life of depravation She depends on you, hеr only son [Passion: Irene Jansen] She won't let you go Keep you down below Dark crypts of your soul Lockеd inside your head You're better off dead [Agony: Devon Graves] Where are you, can't you hear her calling? Nothing you can do, you have no time There is no one there, to catch her now she's falling Why should you care, you are doing fine [Passion: Irene Jansen] She won't let you go Keep you down below Dark crypts of your soul Locked inside your head You're better off dead [Reason: Eric Clayton] Now she's at rest, she finally found her peace There's no need to blame yourself You must let go, or the pain won't ever cease It's time to crawl out of your shell [Me: James LaBrie] Mom? Mom! [Reason: Eric Clayton] Your mother died, the day your father left A part of you died as well [Me: James LaBrie] Nurse, nurse! [Reason: Eric Clayton] Feelings of guilt will haunt you 'til the end You must fight hard to break this spell But it hurts... [Fear: Anneke van Giersbergen] You hear her voice, from beyond her grave [Mother] "Where were you son, when I needed you Is this your thanks for all the warmth I gave Did you forget what I been through?" [Fear: Anneke van Giersbergen] You hear his voice, cold and merciless [Father: Mike Mills] "You worthless fool, you let her die!" [Fear: Anneke van Giersbergen] And deep within yourself, you must confess Your ways cannot be justified [Pride: Magnus Ekwall] By now you realized, you have to be Relentless to survive Repress your memories Bury all emotions and thrive! It's your life! [Reason: Eric Clayton] Now she's at rest, she found her peace [Fear: Anneke van Giersbergen] You hear her voice, from her grave [Reason: Eric Clayton] You must let go or the pain won't cease [Fear: Anneke van Giersbergen] Is this your thanks for all I gave [Reason: Eric Clayton] A part of you died as well [Father: Mike Mills] You worthless fool, you let her die [Reason: Eric Clayton] It's time to crawl out of your shell [Fear: Anneke van Giersbergen] Your ways cannot be justified [Pride: Magnus Ekwall] By now you realized, you have to be Relentless to survive Repress your memories Bury all emotions and thrive! It's your life!
