The water's edge is where she waits Lost soul 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 (burning into 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 reach 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

[@zennyfrommoga]

So is no one going to talk about how good John's vocals sound on the "Goodbye" part in the last chorus?

[@OllingProductions]

He is making the low vocals, and James the high ones.. I mean it sounds great, but not really comparable to his guitar playing

[@zennyfrommoga]

OllingProductions I'm simply a sucker for vocal harmony, and JP is killing that one. Don't know why it jumped out to me so much, but it did lol. And don't get me wrong, I'm a guitar player too, and JP actually happens to be my favorite guitarist, but yeah, he's not doing much that stands out on guitar in that exact spot, and he's just got some really good tone going on his vocals in that "Goodybye" harmony bit. Got the same powerful feeling from his vocals when he sang the "One Last Time" bit in Finally Free at the Breaking the Fourth Wall Show.

[@OllingProductions]

I agree, the harmonies sound better than just the regular version, adds variaty and "uniqueness", but technically its not really his vocals that shines through, but James' as its James who sings the second voice which dominates over the first voice or the "melody" as its located above the melody tone. Though, he doesn't sing bad at all, and it is very clear how he progressed over the years. Im attending my 8th concert with them in February, SO EXCITED!

[@zennyfrommoga]

OllingProductions Yeah, the higher harmony that James sings here live is in the recording as well, but the melody dominates it. In this live show, James is just a touch louder than John, but we can still here John very clearly, which to me, brings out not only John's great vocal tone in that part, but the harmony as a whole, and how beautiful of a harmony it is. I've only seen them once, back in April, where they did the Astonishing live, and that absolutely knocked my socks off. Will be sure to see them every chance I get.

[@zacharykim295]

5:35 is an especially stand-out moment

[@MuhamadHeyckel]

one of finest Dream Theater's tunes

[@mikeprado30]

The most emotional track they've done ever.

[@pedroloboantunes4017]

Michael Prado change of seasons? best of times? repeantece? dissapear? goodnight kiss?

[@Cotramjoxxx]

Change of Seasons is an epic track. It's different. Repeantence and dissapear could be boring and slow for some. I think Best of Times and The Spirits Carries On are their most emotional songs.

[@mikeprado30]

Pedro Antunes Indeed another nice candidates, but IMHO The Ministry of Lost Souls is their most emotional :) Surely for example Goodnight Kiss always gets me crying (specially if I hear it from Score, where James does an HEAVENLY work).

[@denizhas2201]
