I don't really have a whole lot to offer regarding the meaning of this song, but I do agree that it's thematically connected to The Mirror (which is a top-knotch song, so check it out if you haven't. I'm pretty new to Dream Theater and I bought Awake just the other day. I'm a bit disappointed with it though. Most of the songs on it come off pretty flat. Don't get me wrong - they're well written and the musicianship is superp, as with all Dream Theater stuff. It must be a production thing.
