Dream Theater - A Fortune In Lies

[music by Dream Theater, lyrics by Petrucci] "For the first time in a long time ...everything was right in my world... and then I woke up." I can remember when, In the unity of our five-day sessions Not even once did we hear the siren song What kind of imagination Asleep in some lyrical coma Who's vain futile memory Could have been so wrong? You can make a fortune in lies You can keep a giant alive You can ride the red Until everybody smiles A trifling euphoria was such an untimely religion maybe your life can explain the reason for my indecision Here is a poor man the heart of this monster creation He said we both will be heroes and I was led into temptation You can make a fortune in lies You can keep a giant alive You can ride the red Until everybody smiles Can you show me your gold and your silver? A hero in frozen water Now you've made a fortune in lies and you kept a giant alive You rode the red You rode the red
