| Dream Theater – Misunderstood Lyrics

Everyone here is completely off track here. This song is based on the movie "The Last Temptations of Christ" according to JP. Some reason to this is because of the line:
"I turn from a theif to a beggar, from a god to god save me"
Because as the story goes, Jesus was crucified in between a thief and a beggar....so he could literally "turn" from a theif to a beggar. I have always looked at the song as being sung as if Jesus were in the first person. I dont' think it is meant to be any significant religious statement on JP's part, just a clever song that was based off a movie.
The first two paragraphs, "Waiting" and "Sleeping" could be when he was in the garden praying and asking God to remove His burden while his disciples slept.
The chorus explains how Jesus set out to become the model for a Godly person and provide redemption for humanity, but everyone expected him to be the Messiah that ruled like a king. That's not what happened, and therefore he was "misunderstood". |

It's about child abuse. Anna Lee is a fictional character that James made after being deeply moved by stories about incest and child abuse he read. |

It doesn't take much to find out the meaning to this song, Paradox. If you hear the first 2 lines, it's kinda easy to figure it out :P |

Great song ... and before anyone says that the lyrics go "We can make extacy" my friend had backstage tickets, and asked rivers about the lyrics, and he said it was build, but it may change whenever he feels like it has to be |
