| Dream Theater – This Dying Soul Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| The original plan was to put three steps in each of the AA songs, but all but TGP have had only two. I'm pretty sure that's what MF923 was thinking of. | |
| Dream Theater – The Great Debate Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Poopmastr (god, it's so hard to type that when talking about such serious issues) brings up what I was about to say... The right-wing view comes from the right and the left-wing view from the left. I doubt these choices were made superficially. | |
| Dream Theater – The Test That Stumped Them All Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
It's all told through the patient's eyes: In his view, he's a God. He knows all and everyone with half a mind loves him. However the idiot doctors think he's crazy. The reality of all this can't be seen from the lyrics. |

One note, though- I believe that Nicholas did find out about what really happened that night, and that the listener is the one who the information is withheld from until the last song. In "One Last Time," we open with Nicholas going over the notion he gets that something doesn't quite fit with the official version of the story. So he goes back to Edward's house, where he went in Fatal Tragedy, to try and find it out. He goes in and finds that it looks exactly as it did in his dream. He goes into the room at the top of the stairs- Edward's room, where the affair took place. This room having had such a personal history for Victoria, his past life, he suddenly sees her final moments. "The walls melt away and some woman is screaming. A man pleads forgiveness- his words I cannot hear." We don't find out what he sees until Finally Free, but it is at this point he realizes what happened and has his spiritual awakening. |
