Dream Theater personnels were John Myung, Mike Portnoy and John Petrucci in 1986. Dream Theater was formed in 1986 by John Petrucci "the guitarist", John Myung "the bassist" and Mike Portnoy "the drummer" while studying at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. Kevin Moore, a high school band-mate of Petrucci's, was recruited to play keyboards and Chris Collins was enlisted as a vocalist.

Lyrics : John Petrucci

(N:)
Where did we come from?
Why all we here?
Where do we go when we die?
What lies beyond?
And what lay before?
Is anything certain in life?
===
They say, "Life is too short",
"The here and the now",
And "You're only given one shot",
But could there be more,
Have I lived before,
Or could this be all that we've got?
===
If I die tomorrow
I'd be all right
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
===
I used to be frightened of dying
I used to think death was the end
But that was before
I'm not scared anymore
I know that my soul will transcend
===
I may never find all the answers
I may never understand why
I may never prove
What I know to be true
But I know that I still have to try
===
If I die tomorrow
I'd be all right
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
===
Victoria:
"Move on, be brave
Don't weep at my grave
Because I am no longer here
But please never let
Your memory of me disappear"
===
(N:)
Safe in the light that surrounds me
Free of the fear and the pain
My questioning mind
Has helped me to find
The meaning in my life again
Victoria's real
I finally feel
At peace with the girl in my dreams
And now that I'm here
It's perfectly clear
I found out what all of this means
===
If I die tomorrow
I'd be all right
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
