Lyrics by john petrucci



Nicholas:

Where did we come from?

Why are we here?

Where do we go when we die?

What lies beyond

And what lay before?

Is anything certain in life?



They say, "life is too short,"

"the here and the now"

And "youre only given one shot"

But could there be more,

Have I lived before,

Or could this be all that weve got?



If I die tomorrow

Id be allright

Because I believe

That after were gone

The spirit carries on



I used to be frightened of dying

I used to think death was the end

But that was before

Im not scared anymore

I know that my soul will transcend



I may never find all the answers

I may never understand why

I may never prove

What I know to be true

But I know that I still have to try



If I die tomorrow

Id be allright

Because I believe

That after were gone

The spirit carries on



Victoria:

"move on, be brave

Dont weep at my grave

Because I am no longer here

But please never let

Your memory of me disappear"



Nicholas:

Safe in the light that surrounds me

Free of the fear and the pain

My questioning mind

Has helped me to find

The meaning in my life again

Victorias real

I finally feel

At peace with the girl in my dreams

And now that Im here

Its perfectly clear

I found out what all of this means



If I die tomorrow

Id be allright

Because I believe

That after were gone

The spirit carries on

Sness remembering all you have learned. when I tell you to open your eyes you will return to the present, feeling peaceful and refreshed. open your eyes, nicholas."
