Breaking down, he turns inside, he's finding need for his disguise Longing for the chance to change but still he's passing all the blame Sinking further in his mind, he stays inside to pass the time Pouring out his soul, he rides and he knows there's more to life Still he tries, yes he tries to live his life Still he tries and he tries to escape his mind Then out from underneath the pain the darkness fades Welcoming the light within, restoring faith Breathing deeper once again, he's wondering why Trapped inside his head he stays for all his life Set me free, to you I pray and I'll stand by your side Give me everything I need and I'll no longer hide Now you can see that there's life beyond tomorrow But you act like you don't understand You live the kind of life that only helps yourself But you won't deny a helping hand All along you knew the truth and never stepped outside Did the things you wanted to and barely walked the line Now you can see that there's life beyond tomorrow Still you act like you don't understand You live the kind of life that only helps yourself But you won't deny my helping hand, no He's reaching out within the sound There's something more if you'll unlock the door He's reaching out, you can't run now It's not too late for you to seal your fate It's the end, you're finally free, the one you fear no longer speaks The weight is lifted, the past is gone, you are not bound, the war is won Drifting faster toward the light, there's no depth, no sense of time Now you're free from the beast inside, no longer captive by your mind You were meant for more than fear and pain, you belong
Eric proves to be very brave exploring new sounds and not staying in one style. There are musicians who do not change until they get bored. With Eric we will have surprises in each new project. Eric, change that we will always listen with all our soul.
I had no idea about this band, though I have been lately listening to Eric Gillette with NMB. Fantastic music, real nice voice, and the musicianship just astounding. Beautiful surprise for today!!
Eric is playing all instruments/vocals on this entire album! Absolutely beautiful stuff.
Breaking down, he turns inside, he's finding need for his disguise
Longing for the chance to change but still he's passing all the blame
Sinking further in his mind, he stays inside to pass the time
Pouring out his soul, he rides and he knows there's more to life
Still he tries, yes he tries to live his life
Still he tries and he tries to escape his mind
Then out from underneath the pain the darkness fades
Welcoming the light within, restoring faith
Breathing deeper once again, he's wondering why
Trapped inside his head he stays for all his life
Set me free, to you I pray and I'll stand by your side
Give me everything I need and I'll no longer hide
Now you can see that there's life beyond tomorrow
But you act like you don't understand
You live the kind of life that only helps yourself
But you won't deny a helping hand
All along you knew the truth and never stepped outside
Did the things you wanted to and barely walked the line
Now you can see that there's life beyond tomorrow
Still you act like you don't understand
You live the kind of life that only helps yourself
But you won't deny my helping hand, no
He's reaching out within the sound
There's something more if you'll unlock the door
He's reaching out, you can't run now
It's not too late for you to seal your fate
It's the end, you're finally free, the one you fear no longer speaks
The weight is lifted, the past is gone, you are not bound, the war is won
Drifting faster toward the light, there's no depth, no sense of time
Now you're free from the beast inside, no longer captive by your mind
You were meant for more than fear and pain, you belong
Don't let the opening fool you. This develops into an insane prog attack like nothing you've heard before. I love it!

Amazing song. I’m now realizing how important Eric is to the Neal Morse Band…
I would bet being in the NMB is like a chocolate shop for Eric.
