Dream Theater - The Ones Who Help to Set the Sun lyrics

Watching my window I was led like a child
As the roadway lamplights misguided my
Mind through the night
A shadow of limit's, we were racing the rain
My hands held the wheel
My eyes tried to hold their place

There must have been a time when
I thought that you were watching
It had to be when my senses lost control
I thought I'd slipped away
I thought I could still feel us moving
It must have been a cloud no
Bigger than a man's hand

Every reason I risk my life
To come back to you
Is locked behind your door
You're my immunity
Outside I watched you burn
Heavy hearts were bleeding a cry for help
A familiar voice my melting
Hands streaked the glass

As I walked away
I wondered what had really happened
Had I run out of time
Did I push myself too far
As my last step fell
I felt my hands upon the wheel
Had I come back to life
Or did I ever leave at all

In higher lives we seem to be
Always a moment too late
We're past the time, when we looked on
Now we're the one who help to set the sun

This time for real I locked
The door behind me
My mind was still a wreck from what I saw
For when my hands are still
I'll recognize the message
Never again will my senses lose control

In higher lives we seem to be
Always a moment too late
We're past the time, when we looked on
Now we're the one who help to set the sun
