DREAM THEATER - Beneath The Surface lyrics

rate me

Is there ever really a right time?

You had lead me to believe

Someday you'd be there for me

When the stars above aligned

When you weren't so consumed

I kept looking for the clues

So I waited in the shadows of my heart

And still the time was never right

Until one day I stopped caring

And began to forget why I longed to be so close

And I disapeared into the darkness

And the darkness turned to pain

And never went away

Until all that remained was buried

Deep beneath the surface

A shell of what things could have been

Tired bones beneath the veil

Of guarded secrets, all to frail

Sad to think I never knew

You were searching for the words

For the moment to emerge

Yet the moment never came

You couldn't risk my fragile frame

Until one day you stopped caring

And began to forget why you tried to be so close

And you disapeared into the darkness

And the darkness turned to pain

And never went away

Until all that remained was buried

Deep beneath the surface

I would scream just to be heard

As if yelling at the stars

I was bleeding just to feel

You would never say a word

Kept me reaching in the dark

Always something to conceal

Until one day I stopped caring

And began to forget why I longed to be so close

And I disapeared into the darkness

And the darkness turned to pain

And never went away

Until all that remained was buried

Deep beneath the surface

Beneath the surface.
