Cover art for Losing Time / Grand Finale lyrics by Dream Theater

I'm curious about the fact that (As i was sitting one day) this song ends, and i have my tracks sorted by album, and up pops As I Am....If you listen to the ending of this song, + the beginning of As I Am, you will notice that they are very similar and almost like an engine revving up again, so my question is-- Could this song be related to As I Am? I mean the words are kind of similar (the idea) even though the songs mood are signifigantly different.

As I Am is about when Dream Theater goes on tour and the step-in guitarist tries to give John Petrucci tips on playing. So, no...

I'm pretty sure that's just something that Dream Theater had done to merge their albums, they put a lot of "Easter eggs" in their music. This song goes into "As I Am," and if you keep going through that album, the last note on "In the Name of God" is the first note on "The Root of All Evil" from Octavarium.
