Beneath The Surface歌词

作词 : John Petrucci
作曲 : John Petrucci
Is there ever really a right time?
You had led me to believe
Someday you'd be there for me

When the stars above aligned

When you weren't so consumed
I kept looking for the clues

So I waited in the shadows of my heart

And still the time was never right

Until one day I stopped caring

And began to forget why I longed to be so close

And I disappeared into the darkness

And the darkness turned to pain

And never went away
Until all that remained was buried
Deep beneath the surface

A shell of what things could've been

Tired bones beneath a veil of guarded secrets all too frail

Sad to think I never knew

You were searching for the words
For the moment to emerge

Yet the moment never came

You couldn't risk my fragile frame

Until one day you stopped caring

And began to forget why I tried to be so close
And you disappeared into the darkness

And the darkness turned to pain

And never went away

Until all that remained was buried

Deep beneath the surface

I would scream just to be heard
As if yelling at the stars
I was bleeding just to feel

You would never say a word
Kept me reaching in the dark
Always something to conceal

Until one day I stopped caring

And began to forget why I longed to be so close
And I disappeared into the darkness

And the darkness turned to pain

And never went away

Until all that remained was buried
Deep beneath the surface

Beneath the surface
