This is the Life Lyrics

In the heart of your most solemn barren night
When your soul's turned inside out
Have you questioned all the madness you invite?
What your life is all about

Some of us choose to live gracefully
Some can get caught in the maze
And...

    The message in this song is about living your life to its fullest and being grateful for the things we do have.

    Wishing that you were someone else, worrying about what others think of you and not aiming for our dreams are all the things keeping us lost in this maze.

    It's a song about the REAL world!
    About what we face everyday as humans, and that the BEST thing you can do is be positive about every situation!

    Because before you know it, your life will be over, memories will have faded, time has raced on! And you won't have much time left!

    Just question yourself now!! What will they say after your gone???
    'They' being your friends, family, colleagues, acquaintances, your enemies!!
    Just ask yourself that!

    Be Grateful for your Life!

    And that is what this song is telling you.

    Clearly a message to Mike Portnoy and the drama that he creates around himself.

    "When your soul's turned inside out. Have you questioned all the madness you invite?"
