The Test That Stumped Them All - 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"
