[00:00:32] 专辑:Octavarium

[00:02:31] Part 1 (0:00-4:20)

[00:02:46] (instrumental)

[00:03:54] Part 2 (4:21-8:44)

[00:05:32] I never wanted to become

[00:05:39] Someone like him

[00:05:43] So secure

[00:05:45] Content to live each day

[00:05:53] Just like the last

[00:05:58] I was sure I knew that

[00:06:03] This was not for me

[00:06:08] And I wanted so much more

[00:06:16] Far beyond what I could see

[00:06:23] So I swore that I'd

[00:06:29] Never be someone like him

[00:06:40] So many years have passed since I proclaimed

[00:06:51] My independance

[00:06:56] My mission

[00:07:00] My aim

[00:07:03] And my vision

[00:07:06] So secure

[00:07:08] Content to live each day

[00:07:20] Like it's my last

[00:07:21] It's wonderful to know

[00:07:27] That I could be

[00:07:31] Something more than what I dreamed

[00:07:39] Far beyond what I could see

[00:07:46] Still I swear that I'm

[00:07:52] Missing out this time

[00:07:58] As far as I could tell

[00:08:03] There's nothing more I need

[00:08:08] But still I ask myself

[00:08:14] Could this be everything?

[00:08:20] That all I swore

[00:08:24] That I would never be was now

[00:08:30] So suddenly

[00:08:33] The only thing

[00:08:36] I wanted

[00:08:37] To become

[00:08:39] To be someone just like him

[00:08:55] Part 3 (8:45-12:15)

[00:09:17] A doctor sitting next to me

[00:09:21] He asked me how I feel

[00:09:25] Not sure I understand his questioning

[00:09:31] He says I've been away a while

[00:09:36] But thinks he has cured me

[00:09:40] From a state of catatonic sleep

[00:09:47] For 30 years where have I been?

[00:10:01] Eyes open

[00:10:04] But not getting through to me

[00:10:11] Medicate me

[00:10:12] Infiltrate me

[00:10:15] Side effects appear

[00:10:20] As my conscience slips away

[00:10:24] Medicate me

[00:10:25] Science failing

[00:10:30] Conscience fading fast

[00:10:36] Can't you stop what's happening?

[00:10:54] A higher dosage he prescribes

[00:10:58] But there's no guarantee

[00:11:02] I feel it starting to take over me

[00:11:09] I tell them not to be ashamed

[00:11:13] There's no-one who's to blame

[00:11:17] A second shot a brief awakening

[00:11:24] I feel the relapse can't break free

[00:11:38] Eyes open

[00:11:41] But not getting through to me

[00:11:48] Medicate me

[00:11:49] Infiltrate me

[00:11:53] Side effects appear

[00:11:56] As my conscience slips away

[00:12:01] Medicate me

[00:12:04] Science failing

[00:12:08] Conscience fading fast

[00:12:13] Can't you stop what's happening?

[00:14:41] Leaning over

[00:14:42] Crawling up

[00:14:43] Stumbling all around

[00:14:46] Losing my place

[00:14:49] Only to find I've come full circle

[00:15:36] Only to find I've come full circle

[00:16:47] Part 5 (16:00-18:27)

[00:16:50] (instrumental)

[00:17:12] Part 6 (18:28-19:58)

[00:18:40] (First)

[00:18:41] Our deadly sins feel his mortal wrath

[00:18:44] Remove all obstacles from our paths

[00:18:47] (Second)

[00:18:48] Asking questions' search for clues

[00:18:51] The answer's been right in front of you

[00:18:53] (Third)

[00:18:54] We try to break through' long to connect

[00:18:57] We fall on deaf ears and failed muted breath

[00:19:01] (Fourth)

[00:19:01] Loyalty' trust' faith and desire

[00:19:03] Carries love through each darkest fire

[00:19:06] (Fifth)

[00:19:07] Tortured insanity' smothering hell

[00:19:10] Try to escape but to no avail

[00:19:13] (sixth)

[00:19:14] The call of admirers' who claim they adore

[00:19:17] Drain all your lifeblood but begging for more

[00:19:20] (Seventh)

[00:19:20] Innocent victims of merciless crimes

[00:19:23] Fall prey to some madmen's impulsive designs

[00:19:26] Step after step we try controlling our fate

[00:19:29] When we finally start living it's become too late

[00:19:32] Trapped inside this octavarium

[00:19:34] Trapped inside this octavarium

[00:19:36] Trapped inside this octavarium

[00:19:38] Trapped inside this octavarium

[00:20:27] Part 7 (19:59-21:26)

[00:20:39] We move in circles

[00:20:45] Balanced all the while

[00:20:50] On a gleaming razor's edge

[00:21:02] A perfect sphere

[00:21:06] Colliding with our fate

[00:21:14] This story ends where it began

[00:21:36] Part 8 (21:27-24:00)

[00:21:39] (instrumental)
