Rush – Nobody's Hero Lyrics 15 years ago
"As the years went by, we drifted apart
When I heard that he was gone
I felt a shadow cross my heart "

- To me, this is the key lyric in the song. It's important that the dead friend, isn't really a friend any more. The chorus mentions how the person is "Nobody's hero" - in that their death won't effect the rest of the world. Although, I suspect this is a reflection of the personal guilt felt in the song. The guilt derived from knowing that the person's death won't make a difference to the narrator's life, in any way, since they haven't been a close friends for a while.

Dream Theater – Status Seeker Lyrics 15 years ago
It's how people don't take you seriously, as a band, until you're signed to a big label. I heard it in some Dream Theater documentary.

"I want to know you now...
You know I've always believed in you."

Dream Theater – In the Presence of Enemies Pt.2 Lyrics 15 years ago
My favourite line in this song was,
"The body and the soul both threats
For they are one."
It refers to dualism (the idea of an eternal, separate soul) as simply a threat to scare people into following God. "For they are one" refers to the materialist view that your body and your soul are one in the same.
