Day Twenty: Confrontation Lyrics - The Human Equation - Ayreon

[Best Friend] See his mouth, he tries to speak 

He cannot move, his voice is weak... 

[Me] My dear friend can you hear me now? 

I'll try to tell you how I feel 

[Best Friend] I feel the pain inside of you 

Tell me please, what can I do? 

[Me] Listen well to what I have to say 

I have to tell you...of my betrayal 

[Me] I reveal the facts, it was clear 

It spelled the end of your career 

[Best Friend] Yes, I always felt that it was you 

I repressed the thought although I knew the truth 

[Me] The truth is out, I feel relieved 

You hate me now, you've been deceived? 

[Best Friend] Oh no, in a way we are even now 

Come back to us...somehow 

[Wife and Love] Cross that bridge to the other side 

Follow your heart, you can't go wrong 

Come with me, I will be your guide 

And lead you back where you belong 

[Agony] Welcome to reality, be ready for the pain 

Welcome to reality, will it be in vain 

Welcome to reality, 

Nothing much has changed since you were gone 

[Passion] Rise up and show the world you can be a better man 

Rise up and show the world you care, yes you can 

Rise up and show the world you're taking your chance 

Rise up and show the world! 

[Agony] Welcome back! 

[Reason] Welcome to reality, wake up and rejoice 

Welcome to reality, you've made the right choice 

Welcome to reality, and let them hear your voice, shout it out! 

[Pride] Rise up and show the world your battle is won 

Rise up and show the world the old you is gone 

Rise up and show the world your new life has begun 

Rise up and show the world! 

[Reason and Agony] Welcome back! 

[Fear] Here inside the question burns 

Are you sure of your return? 

[Me] I am sure I deserve this chance 

Now I understand it all 

[Fear] It all seems so unreal to you 

Can you decide what to do? 

[Me] Yes I can, oh I will survive 

Look at me...I'm alive 

[Wife and Love] Cross that bridge to the other side 

Follow your heart, you can't go wrong 

Come with me, I will be your guide 

And lead you back where you belong 

[Best Friend] There is so much to see, there is so much to live for 

[Wife] Come with me, my love 

[Reason] You feel her warmth, glowing on your skin 

[Love] You're never alone, I knew we could make it 

[Fear] Aaaaaaaaarrrrgh! 

[Passion] Can't you feel that fire, can't you feel it burn? 

[Agony] Be ready for the pain, ready for the pain! 

[Pride] Well rise up, your battle has been won, your new life has begun 

[Me] I'm alive, I won't look back, aaaaah!
