[music by Dream Theater, lyrics by John Petrucci]
There, there it is
I swear he's gonna murder that poor kid
Wait, I
hear it again
Don't turn on the lights until we
Hear the way it ends
Under peruvian skies
Vanessa regretfully waits
The
story unfolds in her eyes
Where midnight hysteria's
No big surprise
Battered and bruised
Always confusing
The love that
she's losing for hate
Hey, I hope you know
I'm taking all of this time with me when I go
Shame, you're not to blame
I'm
the monster you created
In your daddy's name
Under peruvian skies
Vanessa regretfully waits
The story unfolds in her
eyes
Where midnight hysteria's
No big surprise
Battered and bruised
Always confusing
The love that she's losing for
hate
Poor Vanessa
Poor Vanessa
Terror by night
Liar by day
Telling her secrets
Won't take them away
Under
peruvian skies
Vanessa regretfully waits
The story unfolds in her eyes
Where midnight hysteria's
No big surprise
Battered
and bruised
Always confusing
The love that she's losing for hate
Poor Vanessa
