Matt Bradley - Lead vocals (Gardner solo) (Petrucci solo) In just a moment your life can slip away Wasting time by wasting chances When all that's left here is emptiness and hope It's always darkest before the dawn will show So I've got to stay right Just to see it I've got to rise up and be much more There's nothing's new here My impact fading fast Why seize the hour if I can not make it last The cynics laugh hard and the pundits write away The music's dying but its epitaph will say It's not over yet Just to see it I've got to rise up and be And be so much more Believe I know it I've got to be right... (Petrucci solo) There's a light at the end But a darkness begins As I take the task at hand For the glimpse that I see Is all that I need Just to try and understand Why my fate has let it stand Feel the meaning of power The meaning of fear But it's d**h that's chasing me fast So who really gives a damn If I make it at all I'm just another one that's pa**ed The pain of a marathon that lasts... (Petrucci solo)
