The Dark Eternal Night — Dream Theater

No one dared to Speak of the terrible danger The hideous ancient warnings Forged in the void of night

He is risen up Out of the blackness Chaos The last of the prophets Sinister A sickening monstrous sight

Throught stifling heat Underneath the pale green moon

I burned with a thirst To seek things not yet seen

Climbing endless stairs Leading to the choking room

Eager to explore His most shocking mysteries

Drifting beyond all time Out of a churning sky Drawn to the beckoning light Of the dark eternal night

Black forces Rage in the vortex Fighting Waves of destruction Swallowing The echo of the universe

I am the last Born of the blood of the pharaohs The ultimate god of a rotting creation Sent to unleash this curse

Restless crowds draw near Nameless hooded forms appear

Amidst falling ruins Grotesque creatures battle

Shadowed on a screen Yellow evil faces leer

Vacant monuments Corpses of dead worlds left behind

Drifting beyond all time Out of a churning sky Drawn to the beckoning light Of the dark eternal night

Trapped in a hellish dream Spinning past worlds unseen And frightfully vanishing Into the dark eternal night

Drifting beyond all time Out of a churning sky Drawn to the beckoning light Of the dark eternal night

Trapped in a hellish dream Spinning past worlds unseen And frightfully vanishing Into the dark eternal night
