Savatage - 'When The Crowds Are Gone' (music video)
I don't know where the years have gone
Memories can only last so long
Like faded photographs, forgotten songs
And the things I never knew
When the skin is thin, the heart shows through
Please believe me, what I tell you is true
Where's the light, turn then on again
One more night to believe and then
Another note for my requiem
A memory to carry on
The story's over when the crowds are gone
All my friends have been crucified
They made life a long suicide true
Guess we never figured out the rules
But I'm still alive and my fingers feel
I'm gonna play on till the final reel's through
And read the credits from a different view
Where's the lights, turn them on again
One more night to believe and then
Another note for my requiem
A memory to carry on
The story's over when the crowds are gone...
When the crowds are gone and
I'm all alone playing a final song
Now, that the lights are gone,
Turn them on again
One more time for me, my friend -
Turn them on again
I never wanted to know, never wanted to see
I wasted my time till time wasted me
Never wanted to go always wanted to stay
'Cause the person I am are the parts that I play
So I play and I plan and hope and I scheme
To the lure of a night filled
With unfinished dreams
And I'm holding on tight
To a world gone astray
As they charge me for years
I can no longer pay!... oh
When the lights are gone
Turn them on again...
I never wanted to know, never wanted to see
I wasted my time till time wasted me
Never wanted to go always wanted to stay
'Cause the person I am are the parts that I play!...
And the lights - turn them off, my friend
And the ghosts, well, just let them in
'Cause in the dark it's easier... to see
Memories can only last so long
Like faded photographs, forgotten songs
And the things I never knew
When the skin is thin, the heart shows through
Please believe me, what I tell you is true
Where's the light, turn then on again
One more night to believe and then
Another note for my requiem
A memory to carry on
The story's over when the crowds are gone
All my friends have been crucified
They made life a long suicide true
Guess we never figured out the rules
But I'm still alive and my fingers feel
I'm gonna play on till the final reel's through
And read the credits from a different view
Where's the lights, turn them on again
One more night to believe and then
Another note for my requiem
A memory to carry on
The story's over when the crowds are gone...
When the crowds are gone and
I'm all alone playing a final song
Now, that the lights are gone,
Turn them on again
One more time for me, my friend -
Turn them on again
I never wanted to know, never wanted to see
I wasted my time till time wasted me
Never wanted to go always wanted to stay
'Cause the person I am are the parts that I play
So I play and I plan and hope and I scheme
To the lure of a night filled
With unfinished dreams
And I'm holding on tight
To a world gone astray
As they charge me for years

When the lights are gone
Turn them on again...
I never wanted to know, never wanted to see

Never wanted to go always wanted to stay
'Cause the person I am are the parts that I play!...

And the ghosts, well, just let them in
'Cause in the dark it's easier... to see
Δεν ανακοινώνω κάτι καινούριο ή κάτι ριζοσπαστικό όταν λέω ότι το τραγούδι των Savatage "When The Crowds Are Gone" είναι από τα ωραιότερα στην ιστορία του heavy metal, ένα από τα διαμάντια της "σκληρής" μουσικής.
Το ακούσαμε και το απολαύσαμε στον δίσκο - κόσμημα των Αμερικανών metallers "Gutter Ballet" που κυκλοφόρησε στα τελειώματα του 1989 αναδεικνύοντας τους Savatage ως μία από τις μεγαλύτερες δυνάμεις του χώρου (από καλλιτεχνικής άποψης τουλάχιστον, γιατί το εμπορικό κομμάτι είναι ξεχωριστό)...
