On The Backs Of Angels (A Dramatic Turn of Events - 2011)
[Music by John Petrucci, John Myung and Jordan Rudess, Lyrics by John Petrucci]
Standing on the backs of angels Destined to create Mounting the attack While heroes carry your weight
We spiral towards disaster Survival fading faster
Riding out the wave Content to feed off the machine Bleeding us to death The new American dream
You're blinded by your hunger Beware your days are numbered
Tears fall from the shameless Shelter me, guide me to the edge of the water Selfless are the righteous Burden me, lead me like a lamb to the slaughter
Blurring lines drawn in between What is right and what is wrong Victims on the radar string us along
We're on to your agenda The dead end road to nowhere
Tears fall from the shameless Shelter me, guide me to the edge of the water Selfless are the righteous Burden me, lead me like a lamb to the slaughter
Tears fall from the shameless Shelter me, guide me to the edge of the water Selfless are the righteous Burden me, lead me like a lamb to the slaughter Selfless are the righteous Burden me, lead me like a lamb to the slaughter
