Dream Theater
DreamTheater is a long-running metal band with a huge fanbase. They tend to be very operatic, with long songs that tell stories and sound like metal symphonies. Their CDs often tell long stories if you pay attention. When you listen to their songs, it is like a movie playing in your head. That is why they are called Dream Theater.
ドリームシアター(夢劇場)は大人気メタルバンドだ。彼らの長い歌はオペラ的でメタルシンフォニーのように聞こえるんだ。気を付けったら、彼らのアルバムは物語を伝える。歌を聞くと、脳裏に映画を見るはずだから、ドリームシアターと呼ぶんだ。

The Ministry of Lost Souls
Remember me; I am the one
Who saved your life that night I was the one who would not abandon you Even in death, I was the one who would not leave you I used my freedom to protect you And all the while direct you Do you remember me this time Even in death I gave you life I gave you life I wanted to deserve a place A place beside you This time when I Reach out my hand It reached all the way to heaven Remember me I gave you life You would not take it Your suffering Was all in vain It's almost over now Goodbye It's almost over now Goodbye It's time I release you from this life Don't turn your back on paradise |
The water's edge is where she waits
Lost soul still wandering Meant to die, but she's stuck not crossing over The other side is where he waits His spirit reaching out Meant to save, but she's too scared to take his hand Living in a world without you (drowning in the past) Is living in no world at all So now I call on you: Remember me; I gave you life You would not take it Your suffering was all in vain It's almost over now Don't turn your back on paradise Feeling scared, she's prepared To give up everything She can't stand to feel like half of her is fading He will choose the only way to rid her of her pain Take her soul now The decision has been made Living in a world without love (A burden to my soul) Is living in a worthless world So I will call on you: Remember me; I gave you life You would not take it Your suffering was all in vain It's almost over Remember me You were so young How could I tell you <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< |
Forsaken
For a while
I thought I fell asleep Lying motionless inside a dream Then rising suddenly I felt a chilling breath upon me She softly whispered in my ear Forsaken I have come for you tonight Awaken Look in my eyes and take my hand Give yourself up to me I waited painfully For night to fall again Trying to silence the fear within me Out of and ivory mist I felt a stinging kiss And saw a crimson stain on her lips I have to know your name Where have I seen your face before? My dear one don't you be afraid Forsaken I have come for you tonight Awaken Look in my eyes and take my hand Give yourself up to me >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> |
Take me far away
Close your eyes And hold your breath To the ends of the earth Forsaken I have come for you tonight Awaken Look in my eyes and take my hand Forsaken Fly away with me tonight Awaken Renew my life Now you are mine Give yourself up to me |
Pull Me Under
This world is spinning inside me
The whole world is spinning inside of me Every day sends future to past Every step brings me closer to my last Pull me under Pull me under Pull me under I'm not afraid Living my life too much in the sun Only until your will is done Pull me under Pull me under Pull me under I'm not afraid All that I feel is honor and spite All I can do is to set it right Pull me under Pull me under Pull me under I'm not afraid Living my life too much in the sun Only until your will is done 'Oh that this too too solid flesh would melt.' |
Lost in the sky
Clouds roll by and I roll with them Arrows fly Seas increase and then fall again This world is spinning around me This world is spinning without me Every day sends future to past Every breath leaves one less to my last Watch the sparrow falling Gives new meaning to it all If not today nor yet tomorrow then some other day I'll take seven lives for one And then my only father's son As sure as I ever did love him I am not afraid This world is spinning around me The whole world keeps spinning around me All life is future to past Every breath leaves me one less to my last Pull me under Pull me under Pull me under I'm not afraid All that I feel is honor and spite All I can do is to set it right Dust fills my eyes Clouds roll by and I roll with them Centuries cry Orders fly and I fall again <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< |
The Spirit Caries On
My favorite Dream Theater song. I hope I find the Japanese lyrics soon because this is a very moving song. It is a comforting and bittersweet song about mortality.
一番好きなDreamTheater歌だ。とても感動してる歌だから、早く日本語の歌詞を見つける希望だ。死亡についてで、慰めで悲喜こもごもな歌だ。

Nicholas: Where did we come from? Why all we here? Where do we go when we die? What lies beyond And what lay before? Is anything certain in life? They say, "Life is too short," "The here and the now" And "You're only given one shot" But could there be more? Have I lived before? Or could this be all that we've got? If I die tomorrow I'd be all right Because I believe That after we're gone The spirit carries on I used to be frightened of dying I used to think death was the end But that was before I'm not scared anymore I know that my soul will transcend I may never find all the answers I may never understand why I may never prove What I know to be true But I know that I still have to try If I die tomorrow I'd be all right Because I believe That after we're gone The spirit carries on >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> |
Victoria:
"Move on, be brave Don't weep at my grave Because I am no longer here But please never let Your memory of me disappear" Nicholas: Safe in the light that surrounds me Free of the fear and the pain My questioning mind Has helped me to find The meaning in my life again Victoria's real I finally feel At peace with the girl in my dreams And now that I'm here It's perfectly clear I found out what all of this means If I die tomorrow I'd be all right Because I believe That after we're gone The spirit carries on |
