Endless Sacrifice - Dream Theater

Cold Lying in my bedStaring into darknessLost I hear footsteps overheadAnd my thoughts returnAgain Like a child who's run awayAnd won't be coming backTime keeps passing byAs night turns into dayI'm so far away And so aloneI need to see your faceTo keep me sane to make me wholeTry to stay aliveUntil I hear your voiceI'm gonna lose my mindSomeone tell me why I chose this lifeThis superficial lieConstant compromiseEndless sacrificePain It saddens me to knowThe helplessness you feelYour light Shines on my soulWhile a thousand candles BurnOutside this barren roomThe rain is pouring downThe emptiness inside Is growing deeper stillYou're so far awayAnd so aloneYou long for love's embraceTo keep you sane to make you wholeTry to stay aliveUntil I hear your voiceI'm gonna lose my mindSomeone tell me why I chose this lifeThis superficial lieConstant compromiseEndless sacrificeMoments wastedIsolatedTime escapingEndless sacrificeMoments wastedIsolatedTime EscaptingEndless sacrificeOver the distanceWe try to make senseOf surviving togetherWhile living apartStriving for balanceWe rise to the challengeOf staying connectedIn spite of circumstanceAll you've forsakenAnd all that you've doneSo that I could live outThis undying dreamWon't be forgottenOr taken for grantedI'll always rememberYour endless sacrificeMoments wastedIsolatedTime escapingEndless sacrifice Moments wasted IsolatedTime escaping Endless sacrifice
