The Test That Stumped Them All Lyrics - Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence - Dream Theater

Standing in the darkness 

waiting for the light 

the smell of pure adrenaline 

burning in the night 

Random blinding flashes 

aiming at the stage 

intro tape begins to roll 

igniting sonic rage 

Still they keep me between these hollow walls 

hoping to find in me 

the answers to the test that stumped them all 

"the boy is just simply crazy 

suffering from delusions 

we honestly think that maybe 

he might need an institution 

He lives in a world of fiction 

and really could use some help 

we have just the place to fix him 

to save him from himself" 

Curled up in the darkness 

searching for the light 

The smell of stale sweat and shit 

steaming through the night

Random urine testing 

pills red, pink and blue 

counseling and therapy 

providing not a clue 

Still they keep me between these hollow walls 

hoping to find in me 

the answers to the test that stumped them all 

"we can't seem to find the answers 

he seemed such a clear cut case 

we cannot just let him leave here 

and put all this work to waste 

Why don't we try shock treatment 

it really might do some help 

we have just the tools to fix him 

to save him from himself"
