Music my dream theater<br>Lyrics by john petrucci<br><br>Nicholas:<br>She never really had a chance<br>On that fateful moonlit night<br>Sacrificed without a fight<br>A victim of her circumstance<br><br>Now that I've become aware<br>And I've exposed this tragedy<br>A sadness grows inside of me<br>It all seems so unfair<br><br>I'm learning all about my life<br>By looking through her eyes<br><br>Just beyond the churchyard gates<br>Where the grass is overgrown<br>I saw the writing on her stone<br>I felt like I would suffocate<br><br>Inloving memory of our child<br>So innocent, eyes open wide<br>I felt so empty as I cried<br>Like part of me had died<br><br>I'm learning all about my life<br>By looking through her eyes<br><br>And as her image<br>Wandered through my head<br>I wept just like a baby<br>As I lay awake in bed<br><br>And I know what it's like<br>To lose someone you love<br>And this felt just the same<br><br>She wasn't given any choice<br>Desperation stole her voice<br>I've been given so much more in life<br>I've got a son, I've got a wife<br><br>I had to suffer one last time<br>To grieve for her and say goodbye<br>Relive the anguish of my past<br>To find out who I was at last<br><br>The door has opened wide<br>I'm turning with the tide<br>Looking through her eyes
