dt'nin 2005 cıkısli octavarium albumunden bir parca;

All wound up
On the edge
Terrified

Sleep disturbed
Restless mind
Petrified

Bouts of fear
Permeate
All I see

Heightening
Nervousness
Threatens me

I am paralyzed
So afraid to die

Caught off guard
Warning signs
Never show

Tension strikes
Choking me
Worries grow

Why do I feel so numb
Is it something to do with where I come from
Should this be fight or flight
I don't know why I'm constantly so uptight

Rapid heartbeat pounding through my chest
Agitated body in distress
I feel like I'm in danger
Daily life is strangled by my stress

A stifling surge
Shooting through all my veins
Extreme apprehension
Suddenly I'm insane

Lost all hope for redemption
A grave situation desperate at best

Why do I feel so numb
Is it something to do with where I come from
Should this be fight or flight
I don't know why I'm constantly reeling

Helpless hysteria
A false sense of urgency
Trapped in by my phobia
Possessed by anxiety

Run
Try to hide
Overwhelmed by this complex delirium
dt nin beyond this life la beraber en sert parçalarindan biridir.Pek bi guzeldir
basindaki bass solo ve bir dakika durmayan portnoy kusması içeren şahaser.
oldukça hızlı ve gaz bir dt parçasıdır. sözsüz olsa liquid tension experiment parçası bile olabilirdi.

Which way to turn, is there any way out?
Inside my mind I scream and shout
Terrible anguish,
what's happening to me?
Somebody please set my soul free
Dug induced or maybe insane
What the fuck is wrong with my brain?
Only grows stronger, pain it grows bigger
Somebody please pull the damn trigger
Anxiety, the panic attack
Any way for me to get back
Heart is racing, mind is a blur
Cold sweat, palpitations occur

Discontent with life

Get this monkey of my back
Anxiety, the panic attack
Someone to talk or maybe a friend
Only draws nearer the ominous end
Heart racing faster, just might explode
It's all in my head, that's what I'm told
Consummate professional curing my ills,
Stop wasting my time
with those dumb little pills
Who can I cry to? I turn here and there
Tears on my pillow, I rip out my hair
Lost count of the girls
Still I'm not sane or content
with this world
Discontent with life
Discontent with life
"i am paralyzed, so afraid to die..." kısmında labrie * vokalinin ne kadar paralize edici olduğunu insanın kafasına vuran harikulade dream theater parçasıdır.
the paddingtons adlı harikulade indie rock grubunun first comes first albümünden bir şarkı. sözleri ve müziğiyle kanımca intihar meselesine en ironik yaklaşımı yapan, depresyon hırkası yaktıran, "ölmek istiyorum yhaa" diyenlere labisktirgitöl diyen şarkıdır. dirty pretty things tarafından akustik olarak yorumlanmıştır, leziz ötesi olmuştur.

sözleri,

if you wanna die
go on and commit suicide
you wanna live i know
you gotta get em by the throat
if you wanna die
go on, keep commiting suicide
you wanna live don't you?
well i do too
but you don't know, don't know she cares
if you say so, but it's not quite fair

so anyway, anyway she'll leave me alone
so anyway, you said so yourself so no

you two decide
choose when if you wanna stay alive
keep yourself in my eye
don't say that you cannot see inside

you wanna die
go on commit suicide
you wanna live dont you?
well i do too

but you don't know,and i don't know she cares
and she said so, but she's not quite there

i said anyway, anyway you leave me alone
anyway you said so yourself so no

solo şenliğidir. bass coverı da ayrı iyiymiş. derin olaylar.
octavarium albümünün beşinci ve bana göre en progresif şarkısıdır.
