The Theater Equation ACT 2, Scene 5 – Day fifteen: Betrayal (Live in Rotterdam)

Lyrics

[Fear: Anneke van Giersbergen] This is what you dreamt about Director of the firm Will it be you, or your best friend? He's always been the better man and He fits all their terms What will you do to gain your end? [Agony: Devon Graves] You remember he once told you He tampered with the books When he lost out on the deal You're digging up the evidence No one looks You leave it there for all to see [Reason: Eric Clayton] This memory burns inside You can't forget, you cannot fight or erase it [Passion: Irene Jansen] Let it go, try to unwind! [Reason: Eric Clayton] You'll have to tell and set it right You cannot run, you cannot hide, so face it! [Passion: Irene Jansen] Wake up, free your mind! [Fear: Anneke van Giersbergen] You'll never talk, he'll never know What you have done But can you live with this betrayal? [Agony: Devon Graves] They found him out and let him go I guess you've won But one day, the truth might be unveiled [Reason: Eric Clayton] This memory burns inside You can't forget, you cannot fight or erase it [Passion: Irene Jansen] Let it go, try to unwind! [Reason: Eric Clayton] You'll have to tell and set it right You cannot run, you cannot hide, so face it! [Passion: Irene Jansen] Wake up, free your mind! [Reason: Eric Clayton] This memory burns inside You can't forget, you cannot fight or erase it [Passion: Irene Jansen] Let it go, try to unwind! [Reason: Eric Clayton] You'll have to tell and set it right You cannot run, you cannot hide, so face it! [Passion: Irene Jansen] Wake up, free your mind! [Me: James LaBrie] I have to talk and let him know What I have done I cannot live with this betrayal He's always been the better man I never won Now the truth must be unveiled
