I was listening to Dream Theater's 'The Count Of Tuscany,' and I was having trouble interpreting it. I was wondering if you guys have any songs like this. Here are some of the hardest lyrics:

Dream Theater - The Count Of Tuscany'
I wanna stay alive
Everything about this place
Just doesn't feel right

I don't wanna die
Suddenly I'm frightened
For my life

I wanna say goodbye
This could be the last time
You see me alive

I may not survive
Knew it from the moment
We arrived

LATER:

Could this be the end?
Is this the way I die?
Sitting here alone?
No one by my side

I don't understand
I don't feel that I deserve this
What did I do wrong?
I just don't understand

Give me one more chance
Let me please explain
It's all been circumstance
I'll tell you once again

You took me for a ride
Promising a vast adventure
Next thing that I know
I'm frightened for my life

Now wait a minute, man
That's not how it is
You must be confused
That isn't who I am

Please don't be afraid
I would never try to hurt you
This is how we live
Strange although it seems
Please try to forgive

The chapel and the saint
The soldiers in the wine
The fables and the tales
All handed down through time

Of course you're free to go
Go and tell the world my story
Tell them about my brother
Tell them about me
The Count of Tuscany

I have always loved Labrie/Portnoy/and Pettruci's lyric writing. and the guitar/drums on this album are AMAZING! qould definitely recommend Black CLouds and Silver Linings! Sorry, Theocracy, if I am being another bands Ad......:D

Soooo, what are your guys's lyric trouble????
 
"The lyrics deal with a real-life encounter that John Petrucci had with a Count on the Train of Thought tour, who he believed was trying to kill him."

That's the story all over the internet.
 
It's not so mystical :)
If you want, you can check on songmeanings.net, it's a place where people post their opinions frequently on song lyrics.
 
I've never seen a keyboard player better than Jordan Rudess.

JS Bach was alright.

Seriously though, there's one keyboard player I hold above Rudess. Richard Andersson who's currently in Space Odyssey. Love, love, love his playing.

I've always liked Mike pinella. :D:devil:
