I. SOMEONE LIKE HIM Lyrics: John Petrucci I never wanted to become someone like him so secure Content to live each day just like the last I was sure I knew that This was not for me And I wanted so much more Far beyond what I could see So I swore that I'd Never be someone like him So many years have passed Since I proclaimed My independence My mission My aim And my vision So secure Content to live each day like it's my last It's wonderful to know That I could be Something more than what I dreamed Far beyond what I could see Still I swear that I'm Missing out this time As far as I could tell There's nothing more I need But still I ask myself Could this be everything Then all I swore That I would never be was now So suddenly The only thing I wanted To become To be someone just like him II. MEDICATE (Awakening) Lyrics: James LaBrie A Doctor sitting next to me He asks me how I feel Not sure I understand his questioning He says I've been away a while But thinks he has cured me From a state of catatonic sleep For 30 years Where have I been Eyes open But not getting through to me Medicate me Infiltrate me Side effects appear As my conscience slips away Medicate me Science failing Conscience fading fast Can't you stop what's happening A higher dosage he prescribes But there's no guarantee I feel it starting to take over me I tell him not to be ashamed There's no one who's to blame A second shot A brief awakening I feel the relapse Can't break free Eyes open But not getting through to me III. FULL CIRCLE Lyrics: Mike Portnoy Spoken:Isn't this where we came in? sailing on the seven seize the day tripper diem's ready jack the ripper owens wilson phillips and my supper's ready lucy in the sky with diamond dave's not here I come to save the day for nightmare cinema show me the way to get back home again Running forward Falling back Spinning round and round Looking outward Reaching in Scream without a sound Leaning over Crawling up Stumbling all around Losing my place Only to find I've come full circle flying off the handle with careful with that axe eugene gene the dance machine messiah light my fire gabba gabba hey hey my my generation's home again Running forward Falling back Spinning round and round Looking outward Reaching in Scream without a sound Leaning over Crawling up Stumbling all around Losing my place Only to find I've come full circle IV. INTERVALS Lyrics: Mike Portnoy (Root) Our deadly sins feel his mortal wrath Remove all obstacles from our path (Second) Asking questions Search for clues The answer's been right in front of you (Third) Try to break through Long to connect Fall on deaf ears and fails muted breath (Fourth) Loyalty, trust, faith and desire Carries love through each darkest fire (Fifth) Tortured Insanity A smothering hell Try to escape but no avail (Sixth) The calls of admirers Who claim they adore Drain all your lifeblood while begging for more (Seventh) Innocent victims of merciless crimes Fall prey to some madmen's impulsive designs (Octave) Step after step We try controlling our fate When we finally start living it has become too late Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium V. RAZOR'S EDGE Lyrics: John Petrucci 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 If you find some error in Octavarium Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You. Review about Octavarium owen wilson | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/4/09 full circle is probably my favorite part of the song because if portnoys sheer genius. but i like the whole song. i used to hate this song and skip it because of the boring intro but then i acctually listened to it in its entirety and i loved it. it wasnt until a while ago that i appreciated the continuum opening solo i used to skip the continuum solo but still listen to the intro Awakenings | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/21/09 The songs about the memoirs of oliver sacks, about people with encephalitis lethargica, a disease which causes a statue like state ("catatonic state"). a cure was found for them, waking them up many decades after they were first infected. however, they soon started to feel a great hatred towards the doctor who cured them, and eventually, went back in their "catatonic state". Mesmerizing | Reviewer: Kat | 9/6/09 This song had me the first time I heard it. I love the theme and variation that DT often employs. I also love the 3 endings, ending all the albums since Six Degrees. :) Seriously, this song is majestic, soaring but also gritty. It has everything I need. It should, it's long enough! One of my favorite DT songs ever, second only to Home. OCTAVARIUM! | Reviewer: DT RULES! | 8/29/09 WTF!!!!!!!! the intro CREATES the song. Without it, octavarium would be shit. Whitout medicate, full circle, intervals and razors edge it would also be shit.Every part is needed. If I graphed DT's songs by comlexity & liking, if for example pull me under were at 2 inches, this one would reach the skies! And pull me under is my 2º favorite! It gives ut a meaning. By the way, YOU try and play the intro. It's a pain in the fucking ass to play continuum. Masterpiece | Reviewer: Muhammad syarief | 8/18/09 Octavarium. Perfect song. Elegant intro, harmonic tones that can makes crying, marvelous skill from the player, great arrangement, complete skills from jordan rudess, high speed finger from jp and jm, lead voice from james labrie, and high class drum composition from mike portnoy. Sorry if my english messy, I'm from indonesia. WOW! WOW!! | Reviewer: MAJESTY (DT) | 8/6/09 The intro CRETAES the song. It and the ending are the most important parts of the song. If scarred didnt exist, this would be my FAV song (of all bands & genres). People with no spiritual emotions don't know what this song is about. It says that everything ends where it begins, like a FULL CIRCLE. Every part explains this in a different way/view. In a way, it says everything that is true IS true. The big crunch , we die thinking that in a "new life" we will ACTUALLY be what we desired to be, we stay in the past until it catches up with us. UNDERSTAND? if u dont, are u a retard? The universe ends and a new equal universe is created. INTIMIDATING, HUH? ............ The introduction of this song is one of the most beatiful things ever composed. | Reviewer: prog4life | 5/15/09 What the fuck? I seriously can't understand how people call the intro of the song boring... Everytime I listen to it, I cry like a baby, of pure emotion. And when the guitar comes in with the flute, I get really intense chills down my spine and my eyes just become a waterfall. Damn, so many people out there without spiritual deepness. How sad... THIS IS SUCH A GREAT SONG | Reviewer: mollie | 12/19/08 I had never heard of Dream Theater before my brother made me listen to some of their songs. My new favorite song is now Octavarium. I do think the intro is a little bit long but i can appreciate how hard it is to play an instrument so well. Generally this is an amazing song. TRAPPED INSIDE THIS OCTAVARIUM! | Reviewer: Shred | 10/25/08 This is an epic song. I can understand how some people find it hard to appreciate the intro but it's anything but boring. I must say I like Metropolis Pt 1 more but this is still an amazing song. marvelous | Reviewer: colton | 8/6/08 Some people might say the intro is boring but I think it's as mesmorising as the intro to Shine On You Crazy Diamond by Pink Floyd.
