A Fortune in Lies Songtext
von Dream Theater

This is "A Fortune in Lies"

I can remember when in the unity of our five-day sessions
Not even once did we hear the siren song
What kind of imagination, asleep in some lyrical coma
Who′s vain futile memory could have been so wrong?
Yeah

You can make a fortune in lies
You can keep a giant alive
You can ride the red until everybody smiles

A trifling euphoria was such an untimely religion
Maybe your life can explain the reason for my indecision
Oh, here is a poor man, the heart of this monster creation
Oh, he said we both will be heroes, and I was led into temptation


You can make a fortune in lies
You can keep a giant alive
You can ride the red until everybody smiles

Can you show me your gold and your silver?
A hero in frozen waters

Whoa
Now you've made a fortune in lies
And you kept a giant alive
You rode the red
You rode the red

Yeah, alright New York
It′s great to be back on home turf
Might be a shitty night outside, but we're gonna make this one great
Are you ready?
