Root of All Evil - Dream Theater

Proud enough for you to
Call me arrogant
Greedy enough to be laid from the feet ???
Angry enough for me to
Go and hurt a man
Cool enough for me to feel your greed

Never could have just a part of it
I always knew more ???
Getting it down to the heart of it
For who would believe all has been running my whole life

Dirty enough for me to last
Leaving nothing left to trust
Counting up to still feel envious
Lazy enough to sleep all day
And let my life just waste away
Selfish enough to make you wait for me

Travelling blindly ???
Mislead so easily
??? have to leave it be when
I'm begging to break free

Take all of me, the desires
That keep burning deep inside
Cast them all away
And help to give me strength
To face another day
I am ready
Help me be
What I can't be

Selfcentered fear
Has got a hold me
Clutching my throat
Selfrighteous anger
??? all to me
Ready to explode

Go cross the nation
Paralyzing me
Wanting me dead
These ??? to me

Help to deal for me what I can't do myself
Take this tear and pain
I can't break out of this prison all alone
Help break these chains

???
Now my only hope
Won't you take and love me
Heal this dying soul

I can feel my body breaking
I can feel my body breaking
I'm ready to let it all go
I can feel my body shaking
Wrapped into the foundation
The root of it all

Take all of me that is ???
that keep burning deep inside
Cast them all away
And help to give me strenght
To face another day
I am ready
Help me be
What I can't be
I am ready
Come to me
Take me away
