《The Root of All Evil(其他)》歌词

[00:00:01] The Root of All Evil

[00:00:02] Dream Theater

[00:00:04] Octavarium

[00:00:06] Music: Dream Theater

[00:00:10] <VI. Ready>

[00:01:28] Proud enough for you to call me arrogant

[00:01:35] Greedy enough to be labeled a thief

[00:01:41] Angry enough for me to go and hurt a man

[00:01:48] Cruel enough for me to feel no grief

[00:01:54] Never could have just a part of it

[00:01:57] I always need more to get by

[00:02:01] Getting right down to the heart of it

[00:02:04] The root of all evil has been running my whole life

[00:02:22] Dirty enough for me to lust

[00:02:25] Leaving nothing left to trust

[00:02:28] Jealous enough to still feel envious

[00:02:35] Lazy enough to sleep all day

[00:02:38] And let my life just waste away

[00:02:42] Selfish enough to make you wait for me

[00:02:48] Driven blindly by our sins

[00:02:51] Misled so easily

[00:02:54] Entirely ready to leave it behind

[00:02:57] I'm begging to break free

[00:03:03] Take all of me

[00:03:06] The desires that keep burning deep inside

[00:03:16] Cast them all away

[00:03:19] And help to give me strength to face another day

[00:03:28] I am ready

[00:03:33] Help me be what I can be

[00:03:42] <VII. Remove>

[00:03:57] Self-centered fear has got a hold of me

[00:04:00] Clutching my throat

[00:04:04] Self righteous anger running all through me

[00:04:08] Ready to explode

[00:04:11] Procrastination paralyzing me

[00:04:15] Wanting me dead

[00:04:19] These obsessions that keep haunting me

[00:04:22] Won't leave my head

[00:04:26] Help to do for me what I can't do myself

[00:04:29] Take this fear and pain

[00:04:33] I can't break out this prison all alone

[00:04:37] Help me break these chains

[00:04:40] Humility now my only hope

[00:04:47] Won't you take all of me

[00:04:51] Heal this dying soul

[00:04:56] I can feel my body breaking

[00:04:59] I can feel my body breaking

[00:05:02] I'm ready to let it all go

[00:05:07] I can feel my body shaking

[00:05:10] Right down to the foundation

[00:05:15] The root of it all

[00:06:26] Take all of me

[00:06:29] The desires that keep burning deep inside

[00:06:40] Cast it all away

[00:06:43] And help to give me strength to face another day

[00:06:51] I am ready

[00:06:56] Help me be what I can be

[00:07:05] I am ready

[00:07:10] Come to me

[00:07:13] Take me away

[00:07:47] (Dedicated to Bill W. and all of his friends)
