Dream Theater

Dream Theater is an American progressive metal band formed in 1985 under the name Majesty by John Petrucci, John Myung, and Mike Portnoy while they attended Berklee College of Music in Massachusetts. They subsequently dropped out of their studies to further concentrate on the band that would ultimately become Dream Theater. Though a number of lineup changes followed, the three original members remained together along with James LaBrie and Jordan Rudess until September 8, 2010 when Portnoy left the band. In October 2010, the band held auditions for a drummer to replace Portnoy. Mike Mangini was announced as the new permanent drummer on April 29, 2011. more »

Open your eyes 
And turn off your mind 
Step right up folks 
And you will find 
A growing trend 
An epidemic 
Spread with zen 
And hypodermics yeah 
Yeah 

Just close your mind 
You can find all you need with your eyes 

The big machines take care of you 
Until you kill yourself and then 
The sales go through the roof 
Calculated, formulated 
Feed my head with simple thoughts 
And let me breathe instead of being taught 
All bottled up and tearing at the seams 
I'm bored, just let me breathe 

A daily dose of eMpTyV 
Will flush your mind right down the drain 
Shannon Hoon and Kurt Cobain 
Make yourself a household name yeah 
Yeah 

Just close your mind 
You can find all you need with your eyes 

The big machines take care of you 
Until you kill yourself 
And then the sales go through the roof 
Calculated, formulated 
Feed my head with simple thoughts 
And let me breathe instead of being taught 
All bottled up and tearing at the seams 
I'm bored, just let me breathe 

Strike up your best angst ridden posture, whoa 
Manufactured anger 
Let's not forget my legacy 
All my heroes have failed me 
Now they're dead and buried yeah 

Just close your mind 
You can find all you need with your eyes 

The big machines 
Will take care of you 
Until the fashion fades 
And the checks go through 
My bankroll's red 
And my face is blue 
And still they'll turn their backs on you 
For someone new 
Feed my head 
With some real thoughts 
And let me think instead 
Of being taught 
I'll say things 
You won't believe 
Just stand back 
Just let me breathe
