The Answer Lies Within Lyrics
Look around
Where do you belong
Don't be afraid
You're not the only one
Don't let the day go by
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by, in doubt
The answer lies within
Life is short
So learn from your mistakes
And stand behind
The choices that you make
Face each day
With both eyes open wide
And try to give
Don't keep it all inside
Don't let the day go by
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by, in doubt
The answer lies within
You've got the future on your side
You're gonna be fine now
I know whatever you decide
You're gonna shine
Don't let the day go by
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by, in doubt
you're ready to begin
Don't let a day go by, in doubt
The answer lies within
Where do you belong
Don't be afraid
You're not the only one
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by, in doubt
The answer lies within
So learn from your mistakes
And stand behind
The choices that you make
With both eyes open wide
And try to give
Don't keep it all inside
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by, in doubt
The answer lies within
You're gonna be fine now
I know whatever you decide
You're gonna shine
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by, in doubt
you're ready to begin
The answer lies within

First of all, this song is beautiful. The music is pretty good, but the reason that it's looked down upon is because the lyrics are so fucking cliche it's ridiculous.
This song is greatm, I love the way it builds up and the lyrics really mean alot ot me.
To me it's about growing up and becoming a character of yourself, and not being scared of expressing that.
Although I doubt thats what it's suppose to be about.
Great song, i think it's about enjoying life & stuff like that.
the first time i heard this song, I couldn't believe it was a DT track. however its fuckin' great
This song is absolutely great. Those DT "fans" who say it sucks are people who pretend to be hardcore rockers and deny that life has its moments of reflection and looking within oneself.
Very simple lyrics. Very powerful song... It's about living life to your best.
This song sounds similar to metallica's "Nothing Else Matters." ALways trust your instincts and stand behind your choices without regards to what anyone else thinks.
i agree with ironman 100%
Yeah I agree with Ironman, this song is kinda bland if you ask me
I think this song is about facing the Troubles of day to day life and living each day to the fullest becaus life is short and about being open with other people and not bottling it all inside... DREAM THEATER RULE Best Band EVER!!!!!!!!
