Lyrics by mike portnoy

The sleeper:
Shine- lake of fire
Lines take me higher
My mind drips desire
Confined and overtired
Living this charade
Is getting me nowhere
I cant shake this charade
The citys cold blood calls me home
Homeits what I long for
Back homewhere I belong

The city- it calls to me
Decadent scenes from my memory
Sorrow- eternity
My demons are coming to drown me

Help- Im falling, Im crawling
I cant keep away from its clutch
Cant have it, this habit
Its calling me back to my home

The miracle:
I remember the first time she came to me
Poured her soul out all night and cried
I remember I was told theres a new love thats born
For each one that has died

I never thought that i
Could carry on with this life
But I cant resist myself
No matter how hard I try

Living their other life
Is getting them nowhere
Ill make her my wife
Her sweet temptation calls me home
Homeits what I long for
My homewhere she belongs
Her ecstasy- means so much to me
Even decieving my own blood
Victoria watches and thoughtfully smiles
Shes taking me to my home

Help- hes my brother, but I love her
I cant keep away from her touch
Deception, dishonor
Its calling me back to my home

Nicholas:
Her story- it holds the key
Unlocking dreams from my memory
Solving this mystery
Is everything that is a part of me

Help- regression, obsession
I cant keep away from her touch
Leave no doubt, to find out
Its calling me back to my home
