Текст (слова) песни: Savatage - Not What You See

No lifes so short it cant turn around
You cant spend your life living underground
For from above you dont hear a sound
And Im out here, waiting
I dont understand what you want me to be
Its the dark youre hating, its not who I am
But I know that its all that you see

No lifes so short that it never learns
No flame so small that it never burns
No page so sure that it never turns
And Im out here, waiting
I dont understand what you want me to be
Its the dark youre hating, its not who I am
But I know that its all that you see

[bridge]
Can you live your life in a day, putting every moment in play?
Never hear a word that they say as the wheels go around

Tell me if you win would it show - in a thousand years, who would know?
As a million lives come and go on this same piece of ground

[simultaneously]

Can you live your life in a day
Ive been waiting
Putting every moment in play?
Never hear a word that they say
I dont understand what you want me to be
As the wheels go around
Tell me if you win would it show
Its the dark youre hating
In a thousand years, who would know?
As a million lives come and go
Its not who I am, but it is what you see
On this same piece of ground

[simultaneously]

[1.]
Ive been waiting
I dont understand what you want me to be
Its the dark youre hating
Its not who I am, but it is what you see

[2.]
/Can you live your life in a day
Putting every moment in play?
/Never hear a word that they say
As the wheels go around
/Tell me if you win would it show
In a thousand years, who would know?
/As a million lives come and go
On this same piece of ground

[3.]
/Tell me would you really want to
See me leave this night without you
/Would you ever look about you
Wondering where we might be
/New York is so far away now
Tokyo, Berlin and Moscow
/Only dreams from here but somehow
One day that world we will see

[simultaneously again, except substitute this for stanza 1 and]
[clip last three syllables of the last line of stanzas 2 and 3]

[1.]
I dont understand
I dont understand
I dont understand
I dont understand
I dont understand
I dont understand
I dont understand
I dont understand...

[together, immediately]

...what I see.

[solo]

[coda]
I swear on tomorrow, if you take this chance
Our lives are this moment, the music - the dance
And here in this labyrinth of lost mysteries
I close my eyes on this night and youre all that I see

Youre all that I see
