Dream Theater "The Road"

Dusk is upon us

Clouds filling up the sky

Sunlight will soon vanish

Raindrops begin to fly

Driving the dark winding road

Headlights shine to lead the way

Eyes getting heavier each minute

My consciousness starts to fade

In the blink of an eye

Something sinister appears

A story of nightmares

The epitome of your fears

I jam the car into park

Scared of whats to come

Why has it chosen me,

Where did it come from?

Blood red eyes staring

Stalking towards the driver's side

Locking my doors won't help

Nowhere left to hide

Frozen now with fear

A glimpse thru the fog

The stature of a man

The ferocity of a dog

This can't be right

Werewolves aren't real

Life full of surprises

Monsters weren't part of the deal

Panic grips me tight now

As a claw runs down the door

It starts to claw at the window

My foot slams to the floor

Car takes off in a screech

Now wide awake with fear

Hands glued to the wheel

My house is drawing near

I finally make it home

Disbelief of what occurred

Nothing can be explained

Not a single descriptive word

Trek the stairs to my room

Falling forward onto my bed

Only to then realize

It was all in my head

My eyes opening now

Nothing is what it seemed

I have survived another night

Just another crazy dream
