Dude, did you hear the 'rule' he made for Myung?
From a recent webchat, on the absence of Myung lyrics on Tot:
[Portnoy] starting with SFAM, we kinda layed down a new lyric rule....if you are going to present lyrics, they must be properly formed, phrased, constructed, etc. to go with the melodies
[Portnoy] JM's lyrics were always kind of presented in a more free form poetic manner and it was up to us (Kev, JP or myself) to kind of shape them to the song
[Portnoy] to be blatently honest, we wanted everybody to kind of "carry their own weight" when writing lyrics, and since then John has kind of backed off
[Portnoy] the door is always open to him to contribute again if he'd like...''
It seems that was deliberately put in place for Myung, which is annoying because he writes the best lyrics in DT (Learning To Live for example).
