"I'm through just getting by Countless times a friend has told me Watch out for the wave Now it seems the sea will be my grave" And still you swim to save me Even though the water is much colder now Even though the water is much colder now Sometimes you can lack true intuition Sometimes you can use a different point of view I've found that in such a position I could always come to you (So when you are lonely) I've seen you weep (When you are tired) And I have seen you tired and lonely (I'll carry the cross with you) But it only takes one heart (My heart's here to) To lift you up and send you on (Send you on again) Can you understand the life I'm showing you (Take it from me) Understand it's me, I'm giving you I have seen you born before me I have watched you die I have heard every word you said, believe me I have no question in my mind There's been no brighter star to guide me I won't look past you to the sun, so don't look past me to the sun, The sun is And so love is broken They're asking me how can you help When you don't even know how that feels I don't need one thousand reasons When someone starts to cry When someone says my heart needs lifting Don't ask how come Ask how high I have seen you born before me I have watched you die I have heard every word you said, believe me I have no question in my mind There's been no brighter star to guide me Don't look past me to the sun The sun is I I have no question in my mind (So when you are lonely) There's been no brighter star to guide me (When you are tired) Don't look past me to the sun (I'll carry the cross with you) 2) To Live Forever '91 (04:36) - (DTIFC 99 CD) Original source: To Live Forever (04:54) - John Petrucci [Studio demo, available on the CD single for the song "Lie". ] [Additional verse on this version, starting at 03:37, is Kevin ] [Moore's last lyrical contribution to Dream Theater. ] [A live version is also available on the Fan Club Christmas CD 1998.] If I'd started from the top And worked my way down There'd be no reason To live forever To live forever The starvation has turned Me outside in And the wind has blown Me halfway across the world Across the world Why was I born In an age of distrust I'd offered some change For a photograph It will always stay the same Always be the same Until I show a desire for revenge My hunger will waste me to sleep As long as I have to die in the attempt Then there'll be no reason To live forever Until I show desire for revenge As long as I have to die in the attempt If I had to die in the attempt Then there is no reason No reason No reason To Live Forever To Live Forever 3) To Live Forever '94 (04:55) - (DTIFC 99 CD) Original source: To Live Forever (04:54) - John Petrucci [Studio demo, available on the CD single for the song "Lie". ] [Additional verse on this version, starting at 03:37, is Kevin ] [Moore's last lyrical contribution to Dream Theater. ] [A live version is also available on the Fan Club Christmas CD 1998.] If I'd started from the top And worked my way down There'd be no reason To live forever To live forever The starvation has turned Me outside in And the wind has blown Me halfway across the world Across the world Why was I born In an age of distrust I'd offered some change For a photograph It will always stay the same Always be the same Until I show a desire for revenge My hunger will waste me to sleep As long as I have to die in the attempt Then there'll be no reason To live forever I found you where They left you there A passing word that's gone forever And searching my memory for answers I saw the words of a letter you wrote She said "You don't have to live forever, You don't wanna live forever."

I also preserved the original text of where the transcription came from. Enjoy. Original source: Eve (05:21) - (Live - "Subconscious" CD) [Recorded live at the Limelight, NY, March 4, 1993. ] [The samples are from a reading of James Joyce's book, ] ["Dedalus - Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man". ] "Chapter One. Once upon a time, and a very good time it was, There was a moo cow coming down along the road." "So He came Himself in weakness not in power And He sent thee, a creature in His stead, With a creature's comeliness and luster Suited to our state. And now thy very face and form dear mother, Speak to us of the eternal; Not like earthly beauty, dangerous to look upon, But like the morning star which is thy emblem, Bright and musical, breathing purity, Telling of Heaven and infusing peace. O harbinger of day! O light of the pilgrim! Lead us still as thou hast led. In the dark night, across the bleak wilderness Guide us on to our Lord Jesus, guide us home." "'Tower of Ivory?' they used to say, 'House of Gold?' How could a woman be a tower of ivory or a house of gold?" 5) Raise The Knife (11:35) - (DTIFC 99 CD) Original source: Raise The Knife (0:0) [Studio demo from 1997, recorded during the making of the album ] [Falling Into Infinity. ] - Mike Portnoy Have I thanked you for you time?
