bu öyle bir parçadır ki bir kaç parçayı birden dinler gibi oluyor insan. dream theater'ın güzelliği de burada zaten. dream theater top five'ımda yer alan parçadır. en sevdiğim yeri de parçanın climax'i "my soul is my own now, i do not fight for you" kısmıdır. ancak buraya gelmeden önce synth'ler ve gitar ile güzel bir düşüş var, daha önceden de aynı düşüşü breaking all illusions'da dinlemiştik. böyle sürprizler de çıkabiliyor dream theater'da. eski parçalara göndermeler, ufak melodiler...
[Intro]
Welcome tired pilgrim into the circle
We have been waiting
Everyone's gathered for your arrival
All the believers
Angels fall all for you, heretic
Demon heart, bleed for us!
[Verse 1]
I've been waiting for you
Weary preacher man
You have been expected
Now we can begin
Let this hallowed
Day of Judgment reign
I have known you father
And your sacred quest
Blessed soldier fighting
You shall never rest
I have known you
But do you know me?
[Pre-Chorus]
Angels fall all for you, heretic
Demon heart, bleed for us!
My soul is yours, Dark Master!
I will fight for you!
[Chorus]
Dark Master within, I will fight for you
Dark Master of sin, now my soul is yours
Dark Master, my guide, I will die for you
Dark Master inside!
[Verse 2]
I cannot see his face
But I could feel his spite
A presence from the dead
Abandoned by the light
This shadow will
Consume him from within
This power that I sense
The rage behind those eyes
Is just a shrouded ghost
A spirit sealed inside
The body and the soul both threats
For they are one!
[Pre-Chorus]
Angels fall all for you, heretic
Demon heart, bleed for us!
My soul is yours, Dark Master!
I will fight for you!
[Chorus]
Dark Master within, I will fight for you
Dark Master of sin, now my soul is yours
Dark Master, my guide, I will die for you
Dark Master inside!
Dark Master, amen
I belong to you!
Dark Master within
[IV: The Slaughter Of The Damned]
[Bridge]
Don't bother, trying to find them
They will be coming to you
Fight, fight and destroy until you can't take anymore!
Slay, spill the blood of the rebels
They are the children of Hell
Flesh of the undead, stopping at nothing to kill
Sin, caught in a moment of weakness
Committed the greatest of all
Sold half of my soul and now it's too late for you
I judge as my eyes see
I judge and I am just
For I speak of the beast
That lives in all of us
Unwelcome ones
Your time has come!
Lord, you are my god and my shepherd
Nothing more shall I want
Walk through the abyss
Into the shadow of death
Fear, there is no evil to fear now
For I know you are with me
My cup overflows
With my enemy's blood
I decay in the house of the Lord
Forever amen
Death will follow me
All the days of my life
I judge as my eyes see
I judge and I am just
For I speak of the beast
That lives in all of us
Unwelcome ones
Your time has come!
Servants of the fallen fight to pave the way
For their savior's calling on this wicked day
Through a veil of madness, with a vicious blade
One man rises up, standing in their way
It's time for your reckoning!
[V: The Reckoning]
[Instrumental Break]
[VI: Salvation]
[Outro]
My soul grows weaker
He knows and he waits
He watches over me
Standing at the infernal gates
In the hour of darkness
The moment I feared has passed
The moment I lost my faith
Promising salvation
My soul is my own now!
I do not fight for you, Dark Master!
