Nightmare To Remember Lyrics - Black Clouds & Silver Linings - Dream Theater

A Nightmare To Remember 

 

A nightmare to remember 

I'd never be the same. 

What began as laughter 

So soon would turn to pain. 

The sky was clear and frigid 

The air was thick and still 

Now I'm not one to soon forget 

And I bet I never will

Picture for a moment 

The perfect irony 

A flawless new beginning 

Eclipsed by tragedy. 

The uninvited stranger 

Started dancing on his own 

So we said goodbye 

To the glowing bride 

And we made our way back home. 

 

Life was so simple then 

We were so innocent. 

Father and mother 

Holding each other. 

 

Photos 

 

Without warning 

Out of nowhere 

Like a bullet 

From the night 

Crushing Glass 

Rubber and steel 

Scorching fire 

Glowing lights 

Screams of terror 

Pain and Fear 

Sounds of sirens 

Smoke in my eyes 

Sudden stillness 

Blackened silence 

No more screaming 

No more cries 

 

Stunned and bewildered 

Cold and afraid 

Torn up and broken 

Frightened and dazed 

 

Stunned and bewildered 

Cold and afraid 

Torn up and broken 

Frightened and dazed 

 

Lying on the table 

In this unfamiliar place 

I'm greeted by a stranger 

A man without a face 

He said, "Son, do you remember? 

Do you even know your name?" 

Then he shined a light into my eyes 

And said, "take this for the pain." 

 

Hopelessly drifting, 

Bathing in beautiful agony. 

I am endlessly falling, 

Lost in this wonderful misery. 

In peaceful sedation, I lay half awake 

And all of the panic inside starts to fade. 

Hopelessly drifting, 

Bathing in beautiful agony. 

 

"Tell me does this hurt you?" 

Said the faceless man. 

"Can you move all of your fingers? 

Can you try your best to stand?" 

I asked about the others 

Is everyone OK? 

He told me not to worry 

As he turned and looked away. 

 

Hopelessly drifting, 

Bathing in beautiful agony. 

I am endlessly falling, 

Lost in this wonderful misery. 

In peaceful sedation, I lay half awake 

And all of the panic inside starts to fade. 

Hopelessly drifting, 

Bathing in beautiful agony. 

 

Day after day 

And night after night 

Replaying the events 

Did they ever see the red light? 

 

Over and over 

Scene by scene 

Like a recurring nightmare haunting my dreams. 

How can you prepare for what would happen next? 

No son should ever have to see his father such a mess 

It's a miracle he lived 

It's a blessing no one died 

By the Grace of God above 

Everyone survived 

 

Life was so simple then 

We were so innocent. 

It will stay with us forever 

A nightmare to remember
