【專輯名稱】When Dream And Day Unite
【歌手名稱】Dream Theater
【專輯語言】英文
【發行日期】1989-01
【專輯介紹】
《When Dream and Day Unite》在1989年發行，所引起的迴響遠比樂團所期待的少上許多。最後「Mchanic」唱片公司毀掉了大部分在之前為了和夢劇場簽約所訂下的的財務協議，讓樂團有所限制，只能在紐約市附近表演。而宣傳演唱會也只在紐約和長島開了五場後就喊停。

1.A Fortune In Lies

I can remember when,
In the unity of our five-day sessions
Not even once did we hear the siren song
What kind of imagination
Asleep in some lyrical coma
Who's vain futile memory
Could have been so wrong?

You can make a fortune in lies
You can keep a giant alive
You can ride the red
Until everybody smiles

A trifling euphoria
was such an untimely religion
maybe your life can explain

2.Status Seeker

Heart sick at the sight of the
Status Seeker
In a sense I'm not beyond reproach
the aspiration to drop a name
When any rose might smell the same
Maybe you'll figure it out someday
'I want to know you now...
You know I've always believed in you.'

Nothing is sacred...
You draw the bottom line
with a dollar sign
Change of opinion...
At the drop of a dime
Graceless intrusion...

4.The Killing Hand

I.　The Observance
An Angel's kiss now fallen
Descending scarlet cuts the sky
Faded names left on the wall
Honor the fighting leave life to die
Remembered is the sacrifice but
No praisal of blood still flowing
Who were the leaders?
what controlled the Killing Hand
that caused this mourning?
Crossing over...

II.　Ancient Renewal
Lowered deep into the sea
Being awaits to cleanse his soul

5.Light Fuse And Get Away

Would you like to sit and talk to me
about the way things change so
suddenly
when your senses come and the feeling goes?
can you remember feeling much too close?

Stop your hands from shaking
Look at me
Are your senses racing endlessly
tracing
past impressions?　So were mine
Have you ever been used
or will this be the first time?

It's come so clear to me

6.Afterlife

I touched with one
who made me run
away from my own soul...
In this world with its
many illusions
We are moving like mice through a maze

And now I find
what's left behind
has served to make me whole
full of doubt, deception, and delusion
seeking purpose to all earthly days

I search within
beneath a skin
that bears both pleasure and pain
In a world full of constant confusion

7.The Ones Who Help To Set The Sun

Watching my window I was led like a child
As the roadway lamplights
misguided my mind through the night
a shadow of limits
We were racing the rain
my hands held the wheel
My eyes tried to hold their place

there must have been a time
when I thought that you were watching
It had to be when my senses lost control
I thought I'd slipped away
I thought I could still feel us moving

8.Only A Matter Of Time

A suited man smiled said：
'It's just a matter of time
You can have the world at your feet by tomorrow
just sign on this line.'
Hold tight...limelight!
Approaching the paramount
with the sun in our eyes
fearing family ties, legalies, compromise

In a dimly lit room with a stool as his stage
a dream-stricken prince of a pauper's descent
haunts the eavesdropping silence
that presses his window
