Dream Theater - Through Her Eyes

Music my Dream Theater
Lyrics by John Petrucci

Nicholas:
She never really had a chance
On that fateful moonlit night
Sacrificed without a fight
A victim of her circumstance

Now that I've become aware
And I've exposed this tragedy
A sadness grows inside of me
It all seems so unfair

I'm learning all about my life
By looking through her eyes

Just beyond the churchyard gates
Where the grass is overgrown
I saw the writing on her stone
I felt like I would suffocate

Inloving memory of our child
So innocent, eyes open wide
I felt so empty as I cried
Like part of me had died

I'm learning all about my life
By looking through her eyes

And as her image
Wandered through my head
I wept just like a baby
As I lay awake in bed

And I know what it's like
To lose someone you love
And this felt just the same

She wasn't given any choice
Desperation stole her voice
I've been given so much more in life
I've got a son, I've got a wife

I had to suffer one last time
To grieve for her and say goodbye
Relive the anguish of my past
To find out who I was at last

The door has opened wide
I'm turning with the tide
Looking through her eyes

Lyrics by Mike Portnoy

Hypnotherapist:
"You are once again surrounded by a brilliant white light. Allow the light to lead you away from your past and into this lifetime. As the light dissipates you will slowly fade back into consciousness remembering all you have learned. When I tell you to open your eyes you will return to the present, feeling peaceful and refreshed. Open your eyes, Nicholas."

The Miracle:
Friday evening
The blood still on my hands
To think that she would leave me now
For that ungrateful man

Sole survivor
No witness to the crime
I must act fast to cover up
I think that there's still time

He'd seem hopeless and lost with this note
They'll buy into the words that I wrote

"This feeling inside me
Finally found my love, I've finally broke free
No longer torn in two
I'd take my own life before losing you"

Victoria:
Feeling good this Friday afternoon
I ran into Julian
Said we'd get together soon

He's always had my heart
He needs to know
I'll break free of the Miracle
It's time for him to go

This feeling inside me
Finally found my love, I've finally broke free
No longer torn in two
He'd kill his brother if he only knew

Their love renewed
They'd rendezvous
In a pathway out of view
They thought no one knew
Then came a shot out of the night

The Sleeper:
One last time
We'll lay down today
One last time
Until we fade away
One last time
We'll lay down today
One last time
We fade away

As their bodies lie still
And the ending draws near
Spirits rise through the air
All their fears disappear, it all becomes clear
A blinding light comes into view
An old soul exchanged for a new
A familiar voice comes shining through

Nicholas:
This feeling inside me
Finally found my life, I'm finally free
No longer torn in two
I learned about my life by living through you

This feeling inside me
Finally found my life, I'm finally free
No longer torn in two
Living my own life by learning from you

We'll meet again my friend someday soon

CNN report:
"news in London, France, Russia and Italy have deleted their lead story, all anticipating the outcome of the man considered to be a member of American nobility. And as you can imagine, as the skies have grown darker here over Washington, the mood has grown darker as well and people here are beginning to resign themselves to the possibility that they are witnessing yet another tragedy in a long string of misfortunes. Reaction from everywhere, from Washington and certainly from around the world has gues..."

Hypnotherapist:
"Open your eyes, Nicholas."

Nicholas:
"AAAH!"

Dream Theater
Metropolis Part 2 : Scenes from A Memory
Dream Theater 是來自美國東岸的一個重金屬樂團，因為他們的重金屬的個性，我發現不論是台灣還是歐美，都不再有什麼知識份子是身兼 Dream Theater 的樂迷。我曾經跟某些人開玩笑說：你要某一個樂團玩 Blur 的樂風，但突然他們的吉他手決定要飆得很快，馬上那些喜歡 Blur 的樂迷會把這樂團定義為重金屬，從此就不再可能再在主流被討論了。
我自己都還記得，Nuno Bettencourt 的第一張個人專輯其實是很像另類音樂的，但因為他的電吉他技術太好，反而變成像是四不像；但其實這正是他要的「融合」(fusion) 的樂風。你一定得找一位電吉他技術中等而已，但是編曲以及主唱的音色要能夠打動最多數的人，這時你就有 Coldplay 或者是 Linkin Park 了。
的確，Dream Theater 的東西不若早期的 Yes 或 Led Zeppelin 更容易被現代人接受，畢竟，Dream Theater 這幾年的作品根本已經是「率速金屬」(thrash metal)，像我已經聽了 Systematic Chaos 快一個月，發覺第三首曲子根本跟 1988 年或 1989 年的 Testament 沒太多不同（1988 年的專輯是 The New Order，1989 年的專輯是 Practice What You Preach）。
如果有那種還能夠接受一些重金屬的聲音的樂迷，以下兩張四顆星的專輯可嘗試看看，至少勝過 Linkin Park、Coldplay 太多了。
