Dear Reader,
Dream Theatre - I am a die-hard fan. And like any other true music lover, the lyrics are of no interest to me.
Tonight, in an attempt to bring in my music into my new Macbook, I discovered that there is a "whole" album of Dream Theatre that I have never listened to!! Obviously, it goes without saying that the next task in hand for me was to get all the songs downloaded.
As always, the music is so sirenic, alluring, gravitating and invigorating that I had no qualms in repeating the tracks a million times. Generally, I'd be able to gauge the mood of the song with the music however, in this album there were a few tracks that puzzled me. I wasn't able to understand the context. So I decided to check the lyrics to understand the theme behind the album and what I found out blew my brains out!!!!
The album is split into Scenes, each track representing one. The reason why I wasn't able to figure out the mood of some tracks was because I wasn't listening to them in the original sequence. And here's the kicker - Scene 1 is called "Regression" and the lyrics go something like this.
A book about soul-mates and now an album!! May be, it's a sign but I am unable to decipher it.
