Paralyzed Dream Theater The anger, the pressure You're choking down your words again Feel the nerves set in Unspoken frustration They see right through you Paper thin, like the ghost within A heart that feels no pain Addicted to the game Breaking beneath the strain I am paralyzed The stare of a stranger Is like a wound that bleeds again Silent as the dead The victim, the martyr Like Daniel in the lion's den Time and time again A heart that feels no pain Addicted to the game Breaking beneath the strain I am paralyzed I am paralyzed A heart that feels no pain Addicted to the game Relentless mental trait? What do you stand to gain? Viewing life through such a narrow, fractured lens We'll ensure you end up on the losing end Breaking beneath the string I am paralyzed I am paralyzed I am paralyzed I am paralyzed I am paralyzed
I'm gonna miss this fill and this feel. As a DT fans from the Images and Words album I will always remember you. Thank you Mike Mangini, hope your next journey will be full of happiness
I had never heard that song before, listened to it today and the first thing I thought was "Reminds me of something", and I put the thought and I jumped exactly to this song. And yes. The guitars in the verse and James' vocals definitely remind me of Diary of Jane
Dream Theater has brought me back to reality and rescued me from the Kawaii Fantasy Dimension I was trapped in after watching 30 minutes of Band Maid videos. Thanks Dream Theater for all the great music.

Can't help it but from 3:22 to 3:29 it's something... I dunno... It caught my eye (ear).. If it's the piano melody and guitar getting higher and higher, I dunno, but that is my favorite part of this song. And of top 5 moments of this album for me!
Normally dream theater not making me sleep, but when I listen this with bass booster it's making me sleepy. Keep dreaming you never be me! =) Anyway, one of the best song ever listened and great video. I feel it coming.
I feel deeply connected to this song and video as it accurately describes my perception on reality but in an opposite way. I don't know whether it is my psychosis returning or enlightenment and a spiritual awakening to the illusion that life portrays. I am literally Daniel in the lions den and there is no other human being that I can talk to about this without being seen as mad. I'm not mad. I'm just me. Please help. Anyone.
@@smg1831 Thank you so much for this. You have literally explained the way I've been looking a life recently. It's all an illusion. Everything has some form of conciousness including the universe itself. There is no good or bad. There is only order and disorder, the known and the unknown. And to most people the unknown is madness, death, deity. I used to think I had to become madness to show people that it is natural and form of life to show them the truth but now I don't. I just need to learn as much of the truth that I can show love and compassion to myself and others and above all express myself through the art of music. Bless you :)
I've slightly moved away from Dream Theater in recent years but I have to say, I do really like the main riff of this one. Hard not to like it just a bit after being a fan for so long!
