Lyrics Dream Theater

Dream Theater

The Looking Glass

I would not expect you felt unnoticed and ignored

Better to rise above the clouds

Than be a stranger in the crowd

All that you protected doesn’t matter anymore

Rather be stripped of all your pride

Than watch your dreams be cast aside

You are caught up in your gravity

Glorifying stardom

Singing your own praise

You live without shame

You’re digging up a gold mine

Standing on the sidelines

Watching through the looking glass

You are not content with being nameless and unknown

Trying to rise above the fray

Eager to give it all away

Some will not admit their 15 minutes have expired

Too much attention much too soon

Don’t see you walking on the moon

You are caught up in your gravity

Bathing in the spotlight

Imitating fame

You live without shame

You’re digging up a gold mine

Standing on the sidelines

Watching through the looking glass

You are caught up in your gravity

Glorifying madness

Singing your own praise

You live without shame

You’re digging up a gold mine

Standing on the sidelines

Watching through the looking glass

You live without shame

You’re digging up a gold mine

Standing on the sidelines

Watching through the looking glass
