Dream Theater - The Ministry Of Lost Souls lyrics

[Music: Dream Theater / Lyrics: John Petrucci] The water's edge Is where she waits Lost soul still wandering Meant to die But she's stuck not crossing over The other side Is where he waits His spirit reaching out Meant to save But she's too scared to take his hand Living in a world without you (drowning in the past) Is living in no world at all So now I call on you Remember me? I gave you life You would not take it Your suffering was all in vain It's almost over now Don't turn your back on paradise Feeling scared, she's prepared To give up everything She can't stand to feel like half of her is fading He will choose the only way To rid her of her pain Take her soul now The decision has been made Living in a world without love (a burden to my soul) Is living in a worthless world So I will call on you... Remember me? I gave you life You would not take it Your suffering was all in vain It's almost over Remember me? You were so young How could I tell you? Remember me? I am the one Who saved your life that night I was the one who would not abandon you Even in d**h I was the one who would not leave you I used my freedom to protect you And all the while direct you Do you remember me this time? Even in d**h I gave you life I gave you life I wanted to deserve a place A place beside you This time when I reached out my hand It reached all the way to heaven Remember me? I gave you life You would not take it Your suffering was all in vain It's almost over now Goodbye It's almost over now Goodbye It's time I release you from this life Don't turn your back on paradise
