Below is 2 of 5 parts (4 and 5) of the lyrics in one of the most professional pieces of music; Called "Octavarium", by Dream Theater. It's in their latest album, and it's all about 8 sides of life that you pretty much go through over and over in a huge cycle. The professionalism of the album is outstanding, and you guys should check it out. The only problem i've found is they've not shown much of their musical talent in terms of playing their instruments, although they've gone the extra mile in their musical talent in terms of writing pieces. If you guys think the guitarist, bassist, drummist, or even keyboardist sucked in this album, try out their previous album "Train of Thought", or "Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence". And seriously, this is some of the most professional music i've ever heard, close to Mozart and Beethoven and crap. Ok; Lyrics. I do warn you for the song "Octavarium", though; it goes for 25 minutes. Enjoy.
Intervals[Root] Our deadly sins feel his mortal wrath Remove all obstacles from our path [Second] Asking questions Search for clues The answer's been right in front of you [Third] We try to break through Long to connect Fall on deaf ears with failed muted breath [Fourth] Loyalty, trust, faith and desire Carries love through each darkest fire [Fifth] Tortured insanity A smothering hell Try to escape but to no avail [Sixth] The calls of admirers Who claim they adore Drain all your lifeblood while begging for more [Seventh] Innocent victims for merciless crimes Fall prey to some madman's for impulsive designs [Octave] Step after step We try controlling our fate When we finally start living it's become to late Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium II. Razor's EdgeWe move in circles Balanced all the while On a gleaming razor's edge A perfect sphere Colliding with our fate This story ends where it began
i've heard it and it sounds really good, the lyrics are also very good, gj finding this!
Finding it? Nah, man, I've known this song since I bought the album as soon as it came out. I'm a major Dream Theater fan, got all their albums.
RegardsRhysYeah octavarium is an awesome album. The songs are really well written.
My favorite DT album is probably either Scenes From a Memory or Awake.
