DREAM THEATER - The Ministry Of Lost Souls lyrics

rate me

The water's edge

Is where she waits

Lost soul still wandering

Meant to die

But she's stuck not crossing over

The other side

Is where he waits

His spirit reaching out

Meant to save

But she's too scared

To take his hand

Living in a world without you

Drowning in the past

Is living in no world at all

So now I call on you

Remember me

I gave you life

You would not take it

Your suffering

Was all in vain

It's almost over now

Don't turn your back on paradise

Feeling scared

She's prepared

To give up everything

She can't stand

To feel like half of her is fading

He will choose

The only way

To rid her of her pain

Take her soul now

The decision has been made

Living in a world without love

A burden to my soul

Is living in a worthless world

So I will call on you

Remember me

I gave you life

You would not take it

Your suffering

Was all in vain

It's almost over now

Remember me

You were so young

How could I tell you?

Remember me

I am the one

Who saved your life that night

I was the one who would not abandon you

Even in death

I was the one who would not leave you

I used my freedom to protect you

And all the while direct you

Do you remember me this time?

Even in death I gave you life

I gave you life

I wanted to deserve a place

A place beside you

This time when I reached out my hand

It reached all the way to heaven

Remember me

I gave you life

You would not take it

Your suffering

Was all in vain

It's almost over now

Goodbye

It's almost over now

Goodbye

It's time

I release you from this life

Don't turn your back on paradise
