Prophets of War

Dream Theater

It burns deep down inside of me
We have ourselves to blame
Not questioning, accept it as the truth
Debate this fight; it's just cause
The facts do not support theirs
To liberate a people
And rid them of tyrant rule

Is it time to make the change?
Are we closer than before?
Can we help them break away?
Are we profiting from war?
It's time to make the change

(A change)
Catch your attention
(Deceived)
Since the inception
(Afraid)
Fight for what reason?
(Come out)
Can we clean up this mess?
The loss of loved one's ignorant request
They continue the same rhetoric
These derelicts that profit, win or lose

Is it time to make the change?
Are we closer than before?
Can we help them break away?
Are we profiting from war?
It's time to make a change

(Time for change
Fight the fear
Find the truth
Time for change)

The only thing that I believe
Will help us see this through is faith
Pray they will forgive
Forgive our arrogance
So we can make it right
Right what they have wronged

(I see you sweat
Unexpected, controversial
Keep this two wet
Things are gonna get this to know
Your sympathy
A pitiful display, you studder
Your empathy, you've nothing if there is no honor
Responsible of this you are incapable
We implicate, incriminate, exacerbate; too much at stake
Our fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, sons and daughters thoughts
Perpetuating their ideals, and mine are sad to stay the course 

Is it time to make the change?
Are we closer than before?
Can we help them break away?
Are we profiting from war?

Is it time to make the change?
Are we closer than before?
Can we help them break away?
Are we profiting from war?

Is it time to make a change
A change from what it's been?
Can we help them break away?
Is our patience wearing thin?
It's time to make a change

(Time for change
Fight the fear
Find the truth
Time for change)

Napalm showers
Showed the cowards
We weren't there to mess around

Through heat exhaustion
And mind distortion
A military victory mounted on innocent ground

Hearing voices from miles away
Saying things never said
Seeing shadows in the light of the day
Waging a war inside my head

Years and years of
Bloodshed and warfare
Our mission was only to get in and kill

A free vacation
Of palmtrees and shrapnel
Trading innocence for permanent psychotic hell

Hearing voices from miles away
Saying things never said
Seeing shadows in the light of the day
Waging a war inside my head

Feeling strangers staring my way
Reading minds never read
Tasting danger with each word I say
Waging a war inside my-

Standing in the darkness
Waiting for the light
The smell of pure adrenaline
Burning in the night

Random blinding flashes
Aiming at the stage
Intro tape begins to roll
Igniting sonic rage

Still they keep me between these hollow walls
Hoping to find in me
The answers to the test that stumped them all

"The boy is simply crazy
Suffering from delusions
We honestly think that maybe
He might need an institution

He lives in a world of fiction
And really could use some help
We have just the place to fix him
To save him from himself"

Curled up in the darkness
Searching for the light
The smell of stale sweat and shit
Steaming through the night

Random urine testing
Pills red, pink and blue
Counselling and therapy
Providing not a clue

Still they keep me between these hollow walls
Hoping to find in me
The answers to the test that stumped them all

"We can't seem to find the answers
He seemed such a clear cut case
We cannot just let him leave here
And put all this work to waste

Why don't we try shock treatment
It really might do some help
We have just the tools to fix him
To save him from himself"

When did Dream Theatre recruit Matt Belamy to do their arrangements? lol this sounds like the Muse album Origin of Symmetry

 


I'm not familiar with Muse, are they prog? I will have to check them out.
Dream Theater has been playing pretty heavy and technically brilliant prog rock since 1994 I believe. They will mix up their sound quite a bit. This song is just a small sample of their range. This song/album came out in 2007, about the time of the "surge" in Iraq.
