On the Backs of Angels

Standing on the backs of angels Destined to create Mounting the attack While heroes carry your weight We spiral towards disaster Survival fading faster Riding out the wave Content to feed off the machine Bleeding us to death The new American dream You're blinded by your hunger Beware your days are numbered Tears fall from the shameless Shelter me, guide me to the edge of the water Selfless are the righteous Burden me, lead me like a lamb to the slaughter Blurring lines drawn in between What is right and what is wrong Victims on the radar string us along We're on to your agenda The dead end road to nowhere Tears fall from the shameless Shelter me, guide me to the edge of the water Selfless are the righteous Burden me, lead me like a lamb to the slaughter Tears fall from the shameless Shelter me, guide me to the edge of the water Selfless are the righteous Burden me, lead me like a lamb to the slaughter Selfless are the righteous Burden me, lead me like a lamb to the slaughter --- On the Backs of Angels - Dream Theater
