4. I Walk Beside You

[Music: Dream Theater, Lyrics: John Petrucci]

There's a story in your eyes
I can see the hurt behind your smile
For every sign I recognize
Another one escapes me

Let me know what plagues your mind
Let me be the one to know you best
Be the one to hold you up
When you feel like you're sinking

Tell me once again
What's beneath the pain you're feeling
Don't abandon me
Or think you can't be saved

I walk beside you
Wherever you are
Whatever it takes
No matter how far
Through all the may come
And all that may go
I walk beside you
I walk beside you

Summon up your ghosts for me
Rest your tired thoughts upon my hands
Step inside this sacred place
When all your dreams seem broken

Resonate inside this temple
Let me be the one who understands
Be the one to carry you
When you can walk no further

Tell me once again
What's below the surface bleeding
If you've lost your way,
I will take you there

I walk beside you
Wherever you are
Whatever it takes
No matter how far
Through all that may come
And all that may go
I walk beside you
I walk beside you

Oh, where everything is wrong
Oh, where hopelessness surrounds you
Oh, the sun will rise again
The tide you swim against
Will carry you back home
So don't give up
Don't give in

I walk beside you
Wherever you are
Whatever it takes
No matter how far
Through all that may come
And all that may go
I walk beside you
I walk beside you

The Spirit Carries On收錄於Scenes from a Memory

Scene Eight:
The Spirit Carries On

Nicholas:
Where did we come from?
Why are 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 allright
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 allright
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 allright
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on

Solitary Shell收錄於Six Degrees of Inner Turbulencd (Disc 2)

VI. Solitary shell

He seemed no different from the rest
Just a healthy normal boy
His mama always did her best
And he was daddy's pride and joy

He learned to walk and talk on time
But never cared much to be held
And steadily he would decline
Into his solitary shell

As a boy he was considered somewhat odd
Kept to himself most of the time
He would daydream in and out of his own world
But in every other way he was fine

He's a Monday morning lunatic
Disturbed from time to time
Lost within himself
In his solitary shell

A temporary catatonic
Madman on occasion
When will he break out
Of his solitary shell

He struggled to get through his day
He was helplessly behind
He poured himself onto the page
Writing for hours at a time

As a man he was a danger to himself
Fearful and sad most of the time
He was drifting in and out of sanity
But in every other way he was fine

He's a Monday morning lunatic
Disturbed from time to time
Lost within himself
In his solitary shell

A momentary maniac
With casual delusions
When will he be let out
Of his solitary shell

Under A Glass Moon收錄於Image and Words

6. "Under A Glass Moon" (07:02)
- John Petrucci

Tell me
Remind me
Chase the water racing from the sky
Always beside me
Taste the memories running from my eyes
Nervous flashlights scan my dreams
Liquid shadows silence their screams
I smile at the moon
Chasing water from the sky
I argue with the clouds
Stealing beauty from my eyes

[Chorus:]
Outside the soundness of your mind
Bathing your soul in silver tears
Beneath a blackened summer sky
Praying for time to disappear

Beneath a summer sky
Under glass moonlight
Night awaits the lamb's arrival
Liquid shadows crawl
Silver teardrops fall
The bride subsides to her survival

By your hand
I've awakened
Bear this honor in my name

[Chorus]

我看到你發的文後
跑去找了很多DT的歌
但是你可以推薦一些曲子嗎?
因為他們的專輯實在太多了...：）

k2_112003

嗯...基本上我是從後期聽的,如果說專輯的話每張都推薦,單曲的話,像專輯六級內部亂流中的 "Solitary Shell" "About to Crash" "About to Crash-Reprise" ,還有一個場景的記憶中的"The Spirit Carries On" ,還有"hollow years" "Under a Glass Moon"等等我介紹的這些都是比較不重的樂風  其實每張專輯都是經典 你可以每張專輯都聽聽看 比方說"第八樂章" 每首曲子裡的變化太豐富了 所以都有好聽的地方.

看來DT的深度不適合台灣人吧!!
台灣人就是沒深度吧!?
其實我很喜歡前衛金屬...可是...有幾個人能理解我們聽的音樂...
這種音樂不管是意境還是技巧都不是台灣哪個樂團還是聯合公園那種能表達出來的...

不過我覺得這就是有沒有真的學過音樂的差別...必竟人家都是音樂學院畢業的....

而且光看以前DT來台灣表演的演唱會...
多半都不是衝著前衛金屬屌團而來...
都是把妹啦~~台灣人該搞懂什麼才叫做音樂才對...

有深度的音樂總是不會被大部分的人接受,現在都只是看表面看耍帥而已,又強又帥又不做作的DT真的是名至實歸阿,真是難得遇到同好阿,開心

ViewSonic

聽完之後內心一陣莫名痛快！

希望兄台日後能介紹此團更多音樂~

個人比較推薦早期的專輯:臉紅:臉紅

warrust

除非說是已喜歡的樂團，否則我對現場演奏的影片基本上都沒什麼興趣。
可否樓主放上一些他們的MV，至少這樣會給新手多一些從他們音樂裡的感動。

我是沒聽過他們的音樂啦(現在正在聽)， 感想:
他們的確是個高水準的樂團。 但感覺好像有點弱. 但這只是我聽第一首後的感受啦， 也許多聽幾首(我正有這打算)後會有不同的想法吧。


Edit:
現在正在聽他們07年的單曲，怎麼說呢.....不會弱了啦，但就是很難抓的到他們音樂所要營造的氣氛。 有點亂。

這是個好樂團， 我會把他加入我的收藏裡的。 感謝樓主推薦， 讓我找到一個新的。

k2_112003

回應warrust:夢劇場是一個前衛金屬的樂團,第一首i walk beside you 是2005的專輯,這首歌可以算是他們嘗試以不同的感覺去編曲的,據他們說是為了致敬U2而創作的,所以在這首歌裡面你會感覺有點U2的味道但又有DT本身的元素在裡面.前衛的音樂就是會使用許多實驗性樂風,在編曲上採華麗複雜創作,且具有前進思想,通常整張專輯都是在探討一件事或是敘述一個故事.DT已經經歷了20年的歲月,早就成為90年代前衛金屬的指標,直到現在仍高居不下.所以DT的樂風是非常廣的,但主要還是以前為金屬為主,如果你想聽更過癮的高水準演奏曲,你可以去找他們以前另外和其他樂手臨時組成的Liquid Tension Expirement(LTE),出過兩張專輯.如果你要說MV的話,他們只有前期的作品有拍過而已,到後期就沒有了(從鍵盤手換成JR就沒了),他們不像一般的樂團,所以基本上沒多少MV.希望以後你能從他們在延伸出去,比方說steve vai  光頭喬等等,你會發現一個真正有音樂水準的世界.除了上面兩個連結外在補上另一個 MP的DVD https://www.gamez.com.tw/thread-398750-1-1.html 送啦!!!

基本上我覺得MV的東西是錄音室的東西~~錄音室出來的作品很多都可能修改過...
但是演奏會要好聽那就是實力的展現!!
