Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence: III. War Inside My Head
Mike Portnoy, Jordan Rudess, John Myung, John Petrucci
Napalm showers
Showed the cowards
We weren't there to mess around
Through heat exhaustion
And mind distortion
A military victory mounted on innocent ground
Hearing voices from miles away
(Saying things never said)
Seeing shadows in the light of the day
(Waging a war inside my head)
War inside my head!
Years and years
Of bloodshed and warfare
Our mission was only to get in and kill
A free vacation
Of palmtrees and shrapnel
Trading innocence for psychotic hell
Hearing voices from miles away
(Saying things never said)
Seeing shadows in the light of the day
(Waging a war inside my head)
Feeling strangers staring my way
(Reading minds never read)
Tasting danger with each word I say
(Waging a war inside my head)
