When every word has been written
When every line has been read
When every person cries for justice
And every partner drops dead
When every loss has been suffered
When every war has been fought
When every son been laid to rest
When every lesson has been taught
There comes a time when you realize
It's all over - sooner or later
All of us together - stop pretending it's not
It's going down - It's going down
Nobody listens - I can't believe it.
(Petrucci solo)
There comes a time when you realize
It's all over - sooner or later
All of us together - stop pretending it's not
It's going down - it's going down
Nobody listens - I can't believe it.
When every breath has been drawn
When every sickness has been shared
When every soul has quit religion
When every priest has run scared
When all the actors take a last bow
When all the big deals have gone down
When every cynic's crucified us
When every mother screams out loud
There comes a time when you realize
It's all over - sooner or later
All of us together - stop pretending it's not
It's going down - it's going down
Nobody listens - I can't believe it.
(Murphy-Guillory solos)
(Petrucci solo)
Found asleep at the wheel
Believing in things that are not real
Our reasons more of the same
Pointless encounters - endless cliches
Things escape me time and again
Running in circles while anarchy wins
Not me - I'm not going down
Refuse to sell out or lay down
Fate speaks
Fate speaks loudl
