I can't even tell you how excited and yet how nervous I am to post this drum cover. I am a HUGE Mike Portnoy fan and the fact that he is back behind the throne of the kit with the band makes me beyond happy and excited. I've wanted to do a drum cover of any Dream Theater song sooo many times but I have always hesitated due to knowing the perfectionist in me would need it to be perfect and knowing the musicians like yourself who would be watching it would know this song inside and out and know each and every mistake I make.. so I have never done one. Well today is the day!! Today I pushed forward and here we are! My cover of The Mirror by Dream Theater.

Lyrics
Temptation,
Why won't you leave me alone ?
Lurking every corner-
Everywhere I go
Self Control,
Don't turn your back on me now
When I need you the most
Constant pressure tests my will
My will or my won't
My self control escapes from me still
Hypocrite,
How could you be so cruel ?
And expect my faith in return ?
Resistance,
Is not as hard as it seems
When you close the door
I spent so long trusting in you
I trust you forgot
Just when I thought I believed in you
It's time for me to deal
Becoming all too real
Living in fear,
Why did you lie and pretend ?
This has come to an end
I'll never trust you again
It's time you made your amends
Look in the mirror my friend
Let's stare the problem right in the eye
It's plagued me from coast to coast
Racing the clock to please everyone
All but the one who matters the most
Reflections of reality
Are slowly coming into view
How in the hell could you possibly forgive me ?
After all the hell I put you through
It's time for me to deal
Becoming all too real
Living in fear
Why'd I betray my friend ?
Lying until the end
Living life so pretend
It's time to make my amends
I'll never hurt you again
