Dream Theater
"A Rite Of Passage"
Since the new world order
Played upon our fears
Spreading accusations
of radical appeals
The brotherhood of wisdom
Strenght and dignity
Its rituals and secrets
Remain a mistery
Beneath an ever watchful eye
The angels of the temple fly
Turn the key
Walk through the gate
The great ascent
to reach a higher state
A rite of passage
The final stage
The sacred home
Unlock the door
and lay the cornerstone
A rite of passage
Men of wealth and power
Influence and fame
Philosophers and leaders
All members of the trade
Bound by open honor
Lying through rose and cross
An enigmatic union
Of the esoteric flux
Beneath an ever wacthfull eye
The angels of the temple fly
Turn the key
Walk through the gate
The great ascent
to reach a higher state
A rite of passage
The final stage
The sacred home
Unlock the door
and lay the cornerstone
A rite of passage
Turn the key
Walk through the gate
The great ascent
to reach a higher state
A rite of passage
The seven stars
The rising sun
A perfect world
The new life has begun
A rite of passage
