Lyrics

1. Trial of Tears
 ♪
 Under the sun, there is nothing to hide
 Under the moon, a stranger waits inside
 People disappear
 The music fades away
 Splashing through the rain
 I'll dream with them one day
 It's raining, raining,
 On the streets of New York City
 It's raining, raining, raining, deep in heaven
 I may have wasted all those years
 They're not worth their time in tears
 I may have spent too long in darkness
 In the warmth of my fears
 Take a look at yourself
 Not at anyone else
 And tell me what you see
 I know the air is cold
 I know the streets are cruel
 But I'll enjoy the ride today
 It's raining, raining,
 On the streets of New York City
 It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven
 Raining deep in heaven
 I may have wasted all those years
 They're not worth their time in tears
 I may have spent too long in darkness
 In the warmth of my fears
 As I walk through all my myths
 Rising and sinking like the waves
 With my thoughts wrapped around me
 2. Finally Free
 ♪
 One last time
 We'll lay down today
 One last time
 Until we fade away
 One last time
 We'll lay down today
 One last time
 We fade away
 ♪
 As their bodies lie still
 And the ending draws near
 Spirits rise through the air
 All their fears disappear, it all becomes clear
 A blinding light comes into view
 An old soul exchanged for a new
 A familiar voice comes shining through...
 ♪
 4. In the Name of God
 ♪
 Hundreds of believers
 Lured into a doomsday cult
 All would perish
 In the name of God
 Self-proclaimed messiah
 Led his servants
 To their death
 Eighty murdered
 In the name of God
 Forty sons and daughters
 Un-consenting plural wives
 Perversions
 In the name of God
 Underground religion
 Turning toward
 The mainstream light
 Blind devotion
 In the name of God
 
 Justifying violence
 Citing from the Holy Book
 Teaching hatred
 In the name of God
 ♪
 5.Octavarium
 We move in circles
 Balanced all the while
 On a gleaming razor's edge
 A perfect sphere
 Colliding with our fate
 This story ends where it began
