[00:00:08] Lyrics: Mike Portnoy

[00:00:11] <I. The Crimson Sunrise>

[00:00:14] Instrumental

[00:04:26] <II. Innocence>

[00:04:27] I remember a time

[00:04:31] My frail, virgin mind

[00:04:35] Watched the crimson sunrise

[00:04:40] Imagined what it might find

[00:04:44] Life was filled with wonder

[00:04:48] I felt the warm wind blow

[00:04:52] I must explore the boundaries

[00:04:57] Transcend the depth of winter's snow

[00:05:02] Innocence caressing me

[00:05:06] I never felt so young before

[00:05:11] There was so much life in me

[00:05:16] Still I longed to search for more

[00:05:29] But those days are gone now

[00:05:33] Changed like a leaf on a tree

[00:05:37] Blown away forever

[00:05:41] Into the cool autumn breeze

[00:05:45] The snow has now fallen

[00:05:48] And my sun's not so bright

[00:05:52] I struggle to hold on

[00:05:56] With the last of my might

[00:06:16] In my den of inequity

[00:06:19] Viciousness and subtlety

[00:06:23] Struggle to ease the pain

[00:06:27] Struggle to find the same

[00:06:32] Ignorance surrounding me

[00:06:37] I've never been so filled with fear

[00:06:42] All my life's been drained from me

[00:06:47] The end is drawing near...

[00:06:55] <III. Carpe Diem>

[00:07:07] "Carpe diem

[00:07:12] Seize the day"

[00:07:16] I'll always remember

[00:07:22] The chill of November

[00:07:28] The news of the fall

[00:07:31] The sounds in the hall

[00:07:34] The clock on the wall

[00:07:37] Ticking away

[00:07:40] "Seize the Day"

[00:07:41] I heard him say

[00:07:45] Life will not always be this way

[00:07:51] Look around

[00:07:54] Hear the sounds

[00:07:57] Cherish your life

[00:07:59] While you're still around

[00:08:12] ("Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)

[00:08:14] (Old Time is still a-flying;)

[00:08:16] (And this same flower that smiles today)

[00:08:19] (Tomorrow will be dying")

[00:08:20] We can learn

[00:08:23] From the past

[00:08:26] But those days

[00:08:28] Are gone

[00:08:29] We can hope

[00:08:32] For the future

[00:08:35] But there might not be one

[00:08:47] The words stuck in my mind

[00:08:52] Alive from what I've learned

[00:08:57] I have to seize the day

[00:09:02] To home I returned

[00:09:28] Preparing for her flight

[00:09:30] I held with all my might

[00:09:33] Fearing my deepest fright

[00:09:35] She walked into the night

[00:09:38] She turned for one last look

[00:09:40] She looked me in the eye

[00:09:43] I said, "I Love You...

[00:09:47] Good-bye"

[00:09:48] ("It's the most awful thing you'll ever hear")

[00:09:52] ("If you're lying to me...")

[00:09:54] ("Oh, you dearly love her")

[00:09:56] ("...just have to leave...)

[00:09:58] (All our lives")

[00:10:00] ("Seize the day!")

[00:10:02] ("Something happened")

[00:10:03] ("Gather ye rosebuds while ye may")

[00:10:06] ("She was killed")

[00:10:08] <IV. The Darkest of Winters>

[00:10:12] Instrumental

[00:13:03] <V. Another World>

[00:13:28] So far or so it seems

[00:13:34] All is lost

[00:13:37] With nothing fulfilled

[00:13:41] Off the pages and the

[00:13:44] T.V. screen

[00:13:47] Another world

[00:13:50] Where nothing's true

[00:13:54] Tripping through

[00:13:56] The life fantastic

[00:14:01] Lose a step

[00:14:03] And never get up

[00:14:07] Left alone

[00:14:09] With a cold blank stare

[00:14:14] I feel like giving up

[00:14:21] I was blinded by a paradise

[00:14:26] Utopia high in the sky

[00:14:34] A dream that only drowned me

[00:14:40] Deep in sorrow, wondering why

[00:14:47] Oh come let us adore him

[00:14:53] Abuse and then ignore him

[00:14:58] No matter what

[00:15:00] Don't let him be

[00:15:02] Let's feed upon his misery

[00:15:07] Then string him up for all the world to see

[00:15:11] I'm sick of all

[00:15:13] Your hypocrites

[00:15:15] Holding me at bay

[00:15:18] And I don't need

[00:15:20] Your sympathy

[00:15:22] To get me through the day

[00:15:24] Seasons change and so can I

[00:15:28] Hold on Boy

[00:15:29] No time to cry

[00:15:31] Untie these strings

[00:15:33] I'm climbing down

[00:15:36] I won't let them push me away

[00:16:32] Oh come let us adore him

[00:16:38] Abuse and then ignore him

[00:16:43] No matter what

[00:16:45] Don't let him be

[00:16:46] Let's feed upon

[00:16:48] His misery

[00:16:52] Now it's time for them

[00:16:56] To deal with me

[00:18:36] <VI. The Inevitable Summer>

[00:18:39] Instrumental

[00:20:13] <VII. The Crimson Sunset>

[00:20:36] I'm much wiser now

[00:20:38] A lifetime of memories

[00:20:41] Run though my head

[00:20:44] They taught me how

[00:20:47] For better or worse

[00:20:49] Alive or dead

[00:20:51] I realize

[00:20:54] There's no turning back

[00:20:55] Life goes on

[00:20:57] The offbeaten track

[00:21:19] I sit down with my son

[00:21:21] Set to see the Crimson Sunset

[00:21:25] (Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)

[00:21:30] Many years have come and gone

[00:21:33] I've lived my life, but now must move on

[00:21:36] (Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)

[00:21:41] He's my only one

[00:21:44] Now that my time has come

[00:21:47] Now that my life is done

[00:21:50] We look into the sun

[00:21:53] "Seize the day

[00:21:54] And don't you cry

[00:21:55] Now it's time

[00:21:57] To say good-bye

[00:21:58] Even though

[00:22:00] I'll be gone

[00:22:01] I will live on

[00:22:09] Live on"
