The Ministry of Lost Souls - Dream Theater

Dream Theater是小基介紹給我的Fusion-Rock樂團
而後來我也喜歡上他們的曲風和變換的節奏
這首歌收錄在DT 2007的Systematic Chaos中
有著耐人尋味的變奏和旋律

寂靜中
誰給了繼續下去的勇氣和生命
滂沱時
撐起那把傘
或是讓雨水穿透身體浸濡靈魂

迷失了
用什麼可以找到回來的路
或許希望有個誰
可以幫忙找到出口

或許已遺忘那個場景
也許已遺忘那個旋律

同時也遺忘了靈魂
仍然飄在這裡
持著失針的羅盤和破碎的望遠鏡
找尋那個天堂

用盡力氣飛向手指的地方
是否就會到達所謂的天堂
或著只不過是再一次的墜落

The Ministry of lost souls
Dream Theater
2007/ Systematic Chaos

The water's edge
Is where she waits
Lost souls 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?
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 reached 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
