Dream Theater - Take the time
Just let me catch my breath
Ive heard the promises
Ive seen the mistakes
Ive had my share of tough breaks
I need a new voice, a new law, a new way
To take the time, reevaluate
Its time to pick up the peices,
Go back to square one
I think its time for a change
There is something that I feel
To be something that is real
I feel the heat within my mind
And craft new challenges with my eyes
Giving freely wandering promises
A place with decisions Ill fashion
I wont waste another breath
You can feel the waves coming on
(its time to take the time)
Let them destroy you or carry you on
(its time to take them time)
Youre fighting the weight of the world
But no one can save you this time
Close your eyes
You can find all you need in your mind
The unbroken spirit
Obscured and disquiet
Finds clearness this trial demands
And at the end of this day sighs an anxious relief
For the fortune lies still in his hands If theres a pensive fear, a wasted year
A man must learn to cope
If his obsessions real,
Supression that he feels must turn to hope
Life is no more assuring than love
(its time to take the time)
Youre fighting the weight of the world
And no one can save you this time
Close your eyes
You can find all that you need in your mind
I close my eyes
And feel the water rise around me
Drown in the beat of time
Let my senses fall away
I cna see much better now, Im blind
Find all you need in your mind
If you take the time
Ive heard the promises
Ive seen the mistakes
Ive had my share of tough breaks
I need a new voice, a new law, a new way
To take the time, reevaluate
Its time to pick up the peices,
Go back to square one
I think its time for a change
There is something that I feel
To be something that is real
I feel the heat within my mind
And craft new challenges with my eyes
Giving freely wandering promises
A place with decisions Ill fashion
I wont waste another breath
You can feel the waves coming on
(its time to take the time)
Let them destroy you or carry you on
(its time to take them time)
Youre fighting the weight of the world
But no one can save you this time
Close your eyes
You can find all you need in your mind
The unbroken spirit
Obscured and disquiet
Finds clearness this trial demands
And at the end of this day sighs an anxious relief
For the fortune lies still in his hands If theres a pensive fear, a wasted year
A man must learn to cope
If his obsessions real,
Supression that he feels must turn to hope
Life is no more assuring than love
(its time to take the time)
Youre fighting the weight of the world
And no one can save you this time
Close your eyes
You can find all that you need in your mind
I close my eyes
And feel the water rise around me
Drown in the beat of time
Let my senses fall away
I cna see much better now, Im blind
Find all you need in your mind
If you take the time
