| Paradise Lost – Another Day Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| I've heard that this song is about a school massacre, I don't know if that was Holmes' original idea but looking at the lyrics, it could represent a murderer's thoughts. | |

| Paradise Lost – Never For The Damned Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
Nick's description: http://ww.paradiselost.co.uk/news/articles/in-requiem--track-by-track.html "This song is about sticking to your principles even in the face of death, martyrdom so to speak, but driven more from stubbornness than actual belief. Someone basically unable to do the right thing and ultimately making it worse." |

| Chroma Key – Colorblind Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
Kevin himself described the lyrics like this: "Well, the lyrics are based on a story I read by, I can’t remember his name, Oliver Sacks (Note: this could quite possibly not be the author’s name... the fidelity of the tape kind of gives out as Kevin is mentioning the author’s name). Anyway it’s the true story of a guy, an artist, who gets into a car accident and loses the ability to see colour. So, he starts painting in black and white. So, yeah, it’s sort of based on that." http://www.oocities.org/hume2112/chromakeyint.html |

| Dream Theater – Far From Heaven Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
A quote from this interview with James: http://www.atlasjams.com/2011/12/exclusive-a-dramatic-turn-of-phrase-dream-theater%E2%80%99s-james-labrie-in-his-own-words/4324/ I thought lyrically you were coming down on parents for stifling the creativity of their kids by not giving them enough room to breathe, so to speak. -You frickin’ nailed it! People are trying to live vicariously through their children and putting on unspeakable pressure for them to become something without listening to what it is their children are feeling! |
