Dream Theater - Caught In A Web Lyrics






Silence disguised
I watch you
Show me the hurt
that haunts you
would you despise the thrill
If all you hide were mine?

I can't hold on any longer
These feelings keep growing stronger
Echoes that deafen the mind
will bury my voice in their wake

Caught in a Web
Removed from the world
Hanging on by a thread
Spinning the lies
devised in my head

I've seen the path
the one you take
shows the truth
for you to make
This turn of phrase
we might not see
is the thirst of desire
found so easily

Try to push me 'round
the world some more
And make me live in fear
I bare all that I am
made of now
Attractive I don't care
'Cause even when I danced with life
no one was there to share

Does this voice the wounds of your soul?
Does this voice the wounds of your soul?

Caught in a Web
Removed from the world
Hanging on by a thread
Spinning the lies
devised in my head

Tried to live the life
you live and saw
It doesn't work for me
I bare all that I am
made of now
Attractive, I can't be
Inside the Dance of Life is one
I'll never hold to me

You can't heal the wounds of my soul.
You can't heal the wounds of my soul.

Caught in a Web
Removed from the world
Hanging on by a thread
Spinning the lies
devised in my head

Caught in a Web
Refused by the world
Hanging on by a thread
Spinning a cage
Denied and misread

Dream Theater Caught In A Web Comments
  1. R.... S....

    I just want you to know that i was looking for this one for almost 3 days... didnt remember title or lyrics... Im in orgasm now for the next minutes

  2. R.... A....

    This Combine of thrash & progressive metal

  3. c.... ....

    I live for the cowbell at 3:32

  4. G.... D....

    Sounds like "The Poets 2" from Streets of Rage 3 on Sega Genesys by Yuzo Koshiro Same year 1994. I wonder, did John Petrucci play Sega back then?)) Both legendary tunes.

  5. J.... H....

    NO ONE WAS THERE BUT CHER

  6. V.... P....

    Che album cazzoooò

  7. G.... P....

    Simply amazing....

  8. M.... ....

    Pure Gold!

  9. p.... h....

    For all the labrie hatters out there you try singing like that .the guy sounds fucking incredible !

  10. R.... /....

    New to Dream Theater. Although I've known them for some time, I didn't start listening to their stuff till now, but this song (and album in-general) really wanted me to keep on listening to more.
    And I hope to get into alot more of their stuff later on.

    I needed a new band to listen to anyways.

    R.... /....

    fake fan

  11. S.... I....

    Tool + Children of Bodom

  12. a.... ....

    Colina weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeb

  13. J.... B....

    5:15 that drum ending sounds like panic attack beginning

    J.... B....

    Panik attack starts from there

  14. A.... A....

    I can picture the intro being used in a 90s era WWF commercial: "This Thursday night, Kane and Macho Man Randy Savage Duke it out in the ultimate championship." With the intro playing in the background.

  15. N.... ....

    One of the best choruses ever.

    N.... ....

    Exactly ! What a striking chorus

  16. c.... r....

    "Caught in a Web" by Dream Theater for sure. Check out Opeth or Porcupine Tree!

  17. C.... R....

    awesome song and album

  18. y.... v....

    images and words + Awake. . . in 90s these two album are devastating .

  19. Z.... M....

    :)))))))))))

  20. J.... H....

    For me, just in terms of crafting an album, this is their peak. I mean, what an album this is. The performances, the heaviness, the melody, the atmosphere, the lyrics. It's really a superb milestone for the band.

  21. J.... O....

    lol. Berry

  22. R.... M....

    Am I the only person who hates the keyboard sounds used on this album?

    R.... M....

    You probably are. I, for one, can't stand most stuff Rudess pulls out tone-wise.

  23. A.... ....

    How this is not popular???

  24. E.... v....

    I`m not really a DT fan, but tey are such a good band.!! This vocalist has a great voice OMG. The whole band is awesome! I guess i`m a fan............

  25. S.... B....

    Very amazing song

  26. C.... H....

    A buddy of mine that I might not long ago told me he's a huge Justin Bieber fan and had the balls to make fun of this kind of music. He called it noise etc. the typical ignorant shit but Coming from a 33yr old man who models underwear and listens to Bieber I think it's funny. He swears he's not gay either lol

  27. b.... ....

    2:34 - 4:10 ...I swear the most eargasmic bit of a dark yet heavenly masterful instrumental break I have ever heard in my life!

    b.... ....

    byronius5 u should hear more DT songs

  28. D.... R....

    to me this would be the best DT album :D

    D.... R....

    Agreed. This one and Train Of Thought.

  29. U.... I....

  30. E.... v....

    Fantastic song Fantastic voice

  31. J.... R....

    They don't make albums like this anymore ladies and gentlemen.

    J.... R....

    a better way of saying this is: I don't know how to look for new music.

    J.... R....

    @A. Berfan Hür At the very least, Dream Theater doesn't make albums like this anymore.

  32. H.... C....

    2:33 for one of the most eargasmic instrumental sections of all time.

  33. L.... C....

    The last great album from D.T. :(

    L.... C....

    +pyromaniarules a change of seasons?

    L.... C....

    @Renato Pirisi great song, would not call it a album though

    L.... C....

    I love Awake, but Scenes From A Memory is a masterpiece.

    L.... C....

    SFAM, SDOIT and Train of Thought are great albums too -.-

    L.... C....

    Cotramjoxxx
    IMO I really like FII, even if most others dont. For me its better than most of their post 2000s work.

  34. p.... -....

    yes, you do voice the wounds of my soul... still. 15 years later still (for me)

    p.... -....

    +Satoshikuun It's "Does this voice heal the wounds of your soul"

    p.... -....

    @Satoshikuun I always heard the word "Heal" in there somewhere, particularly because at the end it says "You can't heal the wounds of my soul"

    p.... -....

    +Spooky “Scary” Skeleton what i said was what the booklet said lol

    p.... -....

    @plisskenation Yeah I know now because I actually had to look it up but still that's what I always heard

  35. L.... R....

    Best Labrie performance.

    L.... R....

    One of the best, more precisely.

    L.... R....

    Lucas Rosa Santos I gotta go with Scarred or The Mirror on that one

    L.... R....

    How about A Change of Seasons? It was pretty good

    L.... R....

    @ Grape Flavoured Antifreeze
    LaBrie once said in an interview that "scarred" is his favourite song to perform live!

  36. T.... S....

    Eargasm at 3:46 - 3:55

    T.... S....

    +Rip Van Winkle The whole song is eargasm... no wait! the whole album is eargasm! No no no sorry, the whole band is eargasm.

    T.... S....

    3:46-4:13*

  37. L.... J....

    Brilliant song. Beautiful album.

  38. r.... ....

    They don't do more music like that.

  39. E.... ....

    HAHA, who even mentions Justin Bieber in a DT song... Some guys are actually too stupid for this world I'm sorry xD DT is insane, when it comes to making music, they're wayyyy ahead in whatever you just listed below.

    E.... ....

    +Gilles Den boer You mentioned him

  40. E.... R....

    What is that sound in 3:32?

    E.... R....

    +Emmanuel Ríos Just a guitar effect

    E.... R....

    +Emmanuel Ríos i think hes talking about a vibraslap

    E.... R....

    +ZEXINUSS Yes!! Is a vibraslap, i'm going add to my drums :D

    E.... R....

    +Emmanuel Ríos vibraslap

  41. J.... ....

    3:33 WAH_T THE FUCK ;)

  42. C.... M....

    I wish that they could hold on to this kind of music.

  43. R.... K....

    The most underrated pop band of all time.  A pity they can't compete with the super groups such as Madonna, Justin Bieber and One Direction.

    R.... K....

    Are you retarded

    R.... K....

    @Nick Williams Eat your tendies kid

    R.... K....

    troll ;)

    R.... K....

    hey, we all grow up sometime, and so will you.

    R.... K....

    Troll Time???

  44. T.... A....

    I used to sit and listen to this record ,saying ,I'll never gonna be able to play like that,so I just enjoyed the music ,eventually I did however

    Nowadays I sit and I avoid by all means to listen to dream theater ,they just lose it ... 
    The last record was beyond awful , very sad for me ,this used to be my fav band )8

  46. J.... M....

    This acutally sounds a lot like KoRn imo. Great rhythms going on here.

    J.... M....

    Btw these guys where out in the 80's so more like Korn sounds like them

  47. w.... ....

    yeeah power and love is in the air!

  48. B.... D....

    4 dislikes are JUSTIN BIEBER fans

    B.... D....

    Awesome lol

    B.... D....

    Barry Dompor or metal elitists. Even Portnoy noted that lot of people hate them.

    B.... D....

    647 likes are not interest in Bieber music!

    B.... D....

    Now, another 4 fans, which are the fans of despacito.

  49. �.... �....

    James LaBrie sounds a bit like Russell Allen of Symphony X here

  50. W.... M....

    How is this fanbase so respectful, and yet, linkin Park's is a carnival of hatred?

    W.... M....

    @Dewayne C I like SC as well, but a lot of people don't and their newest is fine.

    W.... M....

    @iloveff96 I have been to a lot of concerts, when I go to see dream theater, the majority of the fans are well behaved, polite, and they don't look like dysfunctional drug addicts

    W.... M....

    +William Man Although I think there's a randomness to "ugly comments" on YouTube, I have noticed the same thing about the DT fan base.

    W.... M....

    Dream Theater's fanbase? RESPECTFUL? Dude tbey even made a song about all the pressure and negative feedback the fanbase puts on them. It's called "Never Enough".

    W.... M....

    +facuredevito indeed. In the wiki, it tells that portnoy wrote the song about the ungrateful 2% of the fanbase. The song contains godlike guitar and keyboard duets

    T.... R....

    What is it? Caaaaught in a web!

    T.... R....

    Cut in a whaaaaaaaaale

  52. e.... ....

    This is the first song I heard from DT and it still is my favorite

    e.... ....

    The first song I heard from them was Deja vi and was one of the first metal songs I heard I was may be 9 or 8 I liked

    e.... ....

    Strange Deja vu*

  53. H.... M....

    This is Dream Theater !!!!!

    H.... M....

    shit. i thought it was disturbed

    H.... M....

    oldGnRrocks1 nope this is planet x

    H.... M....

    @saule No, this is Patrick!!

  54. L.... V....

    This has got to be one of my favorite DT songs

  55. M.... V....

    When I finally get that 7-string, this will be the second song I'll learn... only Dark Eternal Night has a more beastly riff :P

  56. K.... A....

    4:11 , james the decibel man, only freddy mercury can do better 

    K.... A....

    John Arch

    K.... A....

    what about roy adler of fates warning?

    K.... A....

    Eric Adams, Kai Hansen, Michael Kiske, etc...

    K.... A....

    Ross Jennings (Haken) and Einar Solberg (Leprous)?...they and Labrie are my top 3 progressive metal singers :)

    K.... A....

    Lol there are many who can hit that pitch, dont be silly :P

  57. K.... R....

    I love how the guitar and piano go together in this song.

  58. q.... t....

    IMO, the new album is a very good album, but on this one, the stars all aligned or something and Awake was born. An extremely rare occurrence these days by any band.

    q.... t....

    Tomas Horn 3 years later and he made to the bone, most disappointing album of 2017

  59. D.... L....

    Why do I like this so much more than their more recent work?

    D.... L....

    Because it's better!

    D.... L....

    It's my favorite DT album... Not quite as technical as the newer stuff, but Kevin Moore's keys add so much more atmosphere to the songs. You can argue the songwriting was better in this period too.

  60. D.... A....

    this is when they were good...

  61. V.... ....

    James Fucking Labrie

  62. L.... C....

    1 person is definitely caught in a web!!

  63. M.... ....

    A Nightmare to Remember off BC&SL is awesome.

  64. w.... ....

    I don't know if that says BC&SL is bad or not. Its a great album, it just lacks a bit of originallity at times. Face it though, after twenty years in the music industry and 9 album prior, you would be running out of new ideas too.

  65. M.... D....

    awake sounds even better after hearing black clouds and silver linings....

    M.... D....

    I love Black clouds and silver linings

  66. S.... S....

    i love awake

  67. r.... r....

    awesome

  68. L.... ....

    Do you have any advice on how I could get this MP3?

  69. K.... ....

    Another great song! Thanks man
