Symphony X

Symphony X /ˌsɪmfəni ˈɛks/ is an American progressive metal band from Middletown, New Jersey. Founded in 1994 by guitarist Michael Romeo, their albums The Divine Wings of Tragedy and V: The New Mythology Suite have given the band considerable attention within the progressive metal community. They also have achieved more commercial success with the 2007 album Paradise Lost; the band's 2011 album Iconoclast is the highest chart position and the most first-week sales in the band's history. Michael Romeo about the origin of their name: "So, you know, the music we were coming up with had the keyboard thing and the guitar, and some classical elements, so the word ‘Symphony’ came up and, so the dramatic thing, you know?

Pictures of what used to be,
Lie in pieces on the floor
Finds himself in an empty room,
Her voice calls out to him
He opens the door, but there's no one there
No one there...

Draped in a silken glow of moonlight
Through the mist I see, a lucid cathedral appears to me.
Pray for a glimpse of touch of sunlight
Chain our shadow down, night settles in, my love,
You never make a sound.

Love is flowing from my fingertips
Never in control of this domain.
All around me, my essence lay
Watch the vultures circle through the pouring rain.

Close your eyes - and try to remember
Discordant lullabies of days gone by.
Close your eyes - on the edge of forever
A chance to dream, fast asleep your nightmare ends.

As the walls converge around me.
Castles crumbling down, everything is not
As it seems to be.

Once more, I fells I must return
No more will my soul burn. Dawn breaks the ground,
My love,
And with it you fade away...

Close your eyes - and try to remember
Discordant lullabies of days gone by.
Close your eyes - on the edge of forever
A chance to dream, fast asleep your nightmare ends.

Close your eyes - and try to remember
Discordant lullabies of days gone by.
Close your eyes - on the edge of forever
A chance to dream, fast asleep your nightmare ends.

My love never dies...
