The sixth track off of Dream Theater’s 2021 release ‘Awaken the Master’ speaks about discovering balance and ‘what has been all along’, and also hints about finding your true potential and looking deep into your soul.
[Verse 1]
Finding your way
On a frozen path where the air is thin
The angel of balance
Keeps you alive
A flower unfolds
A heartbeat brings new meaning to the universe
The angel of balance
Keeps you strong
Discovering what has been all along
[Chorus]
Spinning through life
Lost in the spiral of time
Turning the stone
Circles of darkness and light
Remember hereafter
[Verse 2]
You made it to the top
Just to find out
You're only halfway there
All along missing the point of the journey
The will of the soul
Like a peak so high
You look inside to rise
Searching out a dream
Climbing, reaching further
And the voices of the angels bring you closer
[Chorus]
Spinning through life
Lost in the spiral of time
Turning the stone
Circles of darkness and light
Remember hereafter
[Chorus]
Spinning through life
Lost in the spiral of time
Turning the stone
Circles of darkness and light
Spinning through life
We balance the heart and the mind
Turning the stone
Embracing the truth that we find
Remember hereafter
