I. Someone Like Him

Verse 1 :

I never wanted to become

Someone like him so secure

Content to live each day just like the last

I was sure I knew that

This was not for me

And I wanted so much more

Far beyond what I could see

So I swore that I'd

Never be someone like him

Verse 2 :
So many years have passed

Since I proclaimed

My independence

My mission, my aim

And my vision so secure

Content to live each day like it's my last

It's wonderful to know

That I could be

Something more than what I dreamed

Far beyond what I could see

Still I swear that I'm

Missing out this time

Chorus :
As far as I could tell

There's nothing more I need

But still I ask myself

Could this be everything

Then all I swore

That I would never be was now

So suddenly

The only thing

I wanted

To become

To be someone just like him

II. Medicate (Awakening)
Verse 1 :

A Doctor sitting next to me

He asks me how I feel

Not sure I understand his questioning

He says I've been away a while

But thinks he has cured me

From a state of catatonic sleep

Pre-Chorus :
For 30 years, where have I been

Eyes open, but not getting through to me

Chorus :
Medicate me

Infiltrate me

Side effects appear

As my conscience slips away

Medicate me

Science failing

Conscience fading fast

Can't you stop what's happening

Interlude :

Verse 2 :
A higher dosage he prescribes

But there's no guarantee

I feel it starting to take over me

I tell him not to be ashamed

There's no one who's to blame

A second shot, a brief awakening

Pre-Chorus :
I feel the relapse, can't break free

Eyes open, but not getting through to me

Chorus :

Medicate me

Infiltrate me

Side effects appear

As my conscience slips away

Medicate me

Science failing

Conscience fading fast

Can't you stop what's happening

III. Full Circle
Verse 1 :

Sailing on the seven seize the day tripper diem's ready

Jack the ripper Owens Wilson Phillips and my supper's ready

Lucy in the sky with diamond Dave's not here I come to save the

Day for nightmare cinema show me the way to get back home again

Chorus :
Running forward, falling back

Spinning round and round

Looking outward, reaching in

Scream without a sound

Leaning over, crawling up

Stumbling all around

Losing my place, only to

Find I've come full circle

Verse 2 :
Flying off the handle be careful with

That axe eugene gene the dance machine

Messiah light my fire gabba gabba

Hey hey my my generation's home again

Chorus :
Running forward, falling back

Spinning round and round

Looking outward, reaching in

Scream without a sound

Leaning over, crawling up

Stumbling all around

Losing my place, only to

Only to find I've come full circle

IV. Intervals

Verse 1 :

Our deadly sins feel his mortal wrath

Remove all obstacles from our path
Asking questions, search for clues

The answer's been right in front of you

Try to break through, long to connect

Fall on deaf ears and failed muted breath
Loyalty, trust, faith and desire

Carries love through each darkest fire

Tortured insanity, a smothering hell

Try to escape but no avail
The calls of admirers, who claim they adore

Drain all your lifeblood while begging for more

Innocent victims of merciless crimes

Fall prey to some madmen's impulsive designs
Step after step, we try controlling our fate

When we finally start living it has become too late

Trapped inside this, Octavarium ...

Trapped inside this, Octavarium ...
Trapped inside this, Octavarium ...

Trapped inside this, Octavarium ...

V. Razor's Edge

Chorus :

We move in circles

Balanced all the while

On a gleaming razor's edge

A perfect sphere

Colliding with our fate 

This story ends where it began ...
