Dream Theater - Octavarium - with lyrics

I did a project about dream theater for my senior year music theory class. We had to pick musical influencers and make a video about them. The last like 7 minutes or so (the whole thing was 15-20) was about this song. I put clips in, and talked about how filled to the brim with secrets it was. My teacher listened to the full song and said it was one of the most complex and interesting pieces of music he ever heard.

I think octavarium is one of the best DT songs....

LaBrie's face at 5:00 - "When Jordan will realize that the crowd is nearly asleep?!?"
5:07 - "Finally. Wake up guys, the song is about to begin!"
5:26 - Okay, a few more minutes. It ain't over yet ...

I discovered Dream Theater more than 20 years ago, I listened to them quite compulsively at some time, and I think they keep on surprising me all the time, discovering new details on songs, appreciating their creativity, enjoying the feelings they can transmit, getting you to just blow your mind. And this happens to me like in a circle, like in an Octavarium

[beataboom]

I've had goosebumps throughout whole song. But damn Full Circle is my favorite part.

dari duduk di bangku sekolah dasar (SD) sampai punya anak, gak bisa lepas dari band satu ini 💚🔥 .

[Blazingmadman]

Whilst personal opinion doesn't matter much in terms of ranking things given how everyone has their tastes, I can't help but say this is probably one of the best works of music ever written.

[alessandromariani]

GREATEST DT song according to me... songwriting is something else, so mature, building of the song is very gradual and every second is worthy...and that final solo... Octavarium is a modern transposition of '70s prog rock and it not disfigure beside the classical masterpieces of the genre.

[dandavidson]

I can’t describe what genre this music is. It’s just gods music and transports me to a different planet when ever I hear this song

[patrikkenspillerjegbass]

queen: thats 6 bloody minutes, nobody will listen to that.




dream theater: *hold my beer*

[AbdulAziz-ickt]

I never watch this before....
and I am speechless Just Say The greatest Ever

[velangicell]

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

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

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

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
For 30 years where have I been

Eyes open but not getting through to me

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

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
I feel the relapse, can't break free

Eyes open but not getting through to me

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?

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

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

Flying off the handle
With careful with that axe
Eugene gene the dance machine
Messiah light my fire gabba gabba
Hey hey, my my generation's home again

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

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 to 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's become too late

Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium

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
