Wait For Sleep/surrounded Lyrics - Dream Theater

Standing by the window 

Eyes upon the moon 

Hoping that the memory 

will leave her spirit soon 

She shuts the doors and lights 

And lays her body on the bed 

Where images and words are 

running deep 

She has too much pride to pull 

the sheets above her head 

So quietly she lays and waits 

for sleep

She stares at the ceiling 

And tries not to think 

And pictures the chains 

She's been trying to link again 

But the feeling is gone 

And water can't cover her 

memory 

And ashes can't answer her 

pain 

God give me the power to take 

breath from a breeze 

And call life from a cold metal 

frame 

Photos 

In with the ashes 

Or up with the smoke from the 

fire 

With wings up in heaven 

Or here, lying in bed 

Palm of her hand to my head 

Now and forever curled in my 

heart 

And the heart of the world
