I saw a white light
Shining there before me
And walking to it
I waited for the end
A final vision
Promising salvation
A resurrection
For a fallen man

Do you still wait for your God
And the symbol of your faith?

I can free you from this Hell and misery
You should never be ashamed my son
I can give you power beyond anything
Trust me you will be the chosen one

I was forgotten
A body scorned and broken
My soul rejected

Tainted by his blood

Beyond redemption
A sinner not worth saving
Forever taken
From the one I loved

Do I still wait for my God
And a symbol of my faith?

I can lead you down the path and back to life
All I ask is that you worship me
I can help you seek revenge and save yourself
Give you life for all eternity

Servants of the fallen
Fight to pave the way
For their saviour's calling
Of this wicked day

Through a veil of madness
With a vicious blade
One man rises up
Standing in their way

Redemption
Redemption for humanity

Welcome tired pilgrim
Into the circle
We have been waiting

Everyone's gathered
for your arrival
All the believers

Angels fall
all for you
heretic
Demon heart
bleed for us

I've been waiting for you,
Weary preacher man
You have been expected
Now we can begin
Let this hollowed Day of Judgment reign

I have known you father
And your sacred quest
Blessed soldier fighting
You shall never rest
I have known you but do you know me?

Angels fall
all for you
heretic
Demon heart
bleed for us

(My soul is yours Dark Master, I will fight for you)

Dark Master within, I will fight for you
Dark Master of sin, now my soul is yours
Dark Master, my guide, I will die for you
Dark Master inside

I cannot see his face
But I could feel his spite
A presence from the dead
Abandoned by the light
This shadow will consume him
from within

This power that I sense
The rage behind those eyes
Is just a shrouded ghost
A spirit sealed inside
The body and the soul both threats
For they are one

Angels fall
all for you
heretic
Demon heart
bleed for us

(My soul is yours Dark Master, I will fight for you)

Dark Master within, I will fight for you
Dark Master of sin, now my soul is yours
Dark Master, my guide, I will die for you
Dark Master inside
Dark Master, amen, I belong to you
Dark Master within

Heil! Heil! Heil! Heil!
Heil! Heil! Heil! Heil!

Don't
Bother trying to find them
They will be coming to you
Fight,
Fight and destroy until you can't take anymore

Slay
Spill the blood of the rebels
They are the children of hell
Flesh,
Of the undead
Stopping at nothing to kill

Sin,
Caught in a moment of weakness
Committed the greatest of all
Sold,
Half of my soul
And now it's too late for you

I judge us
my eyes see
I judge and I am just
For I speak of the beast
That lives in all of us

Unwelcome ones
your time has come

Lord,
You are my god and my shepherd
Nothing more shall I want
Walk,
Through the abyss
Into the shadow of death

Fear,
There is no evil to fear now
For I know you are with me
My,
Cup overflows
With my enemy's blood

I,
Decay in the house of the lord
Forever, amen
Death,
Will follow me
All the days of my life

I judge us
my eyes see
I judge and I am just
For I speak of the beast
That lives in all of us
Unwelcome ones
your time has come

Servants of the fallen
Fight to pave the way
For their savior's calling
On this wicked day

Through a veil of madness
With a vicious play
One man rises up
Standing in their way

It's time for your reckoning


My soul grows weaker
He knows and he waits
He watches over me
Standing at the infernal gates
In the hour of darkness
The moment I feared has passed
The moment I lost my faith
Promising salvation
My soul is my own now
I do not fight for you
Dark Master

    I cry manly tears when I listen to my favorite Dream Theater songs, like this. The sheer awesomeness is hard to get over. I found Dream Theater late. I drove bus from 2016-2021, and I believe it was the Winter of 2018 when I was listening to "Seton Hall Pirate Radio WSOU" 89.5 FM towards the end of my shift. They played "The Count of Tuscany" in its entirety....and I was immediately blown away!!! When I got home, I looked up more songs on YouTube, and the next day on my lunch break, I literally ordered every album on CD, and have been gladly listening to them since. This song that was broken up into two, was the reason I decided to buy all their body of music. And being a Christian rock enthusiast, I highly appreciate the Christian undertones in their music. I'm in my 40's. If I live up into my 80's+, I'll always be a true fan!

    How have I been a DT fan for almost 30 yrs, listening to these songs for the millionth time, and yet still be entranced, amazed, and in awe?!?!?!
  • @AnaOliveira_1986
    I've been privileged enough to have witnessed these two songs played live in this sequence. I'll never forget it.
  • @Zzzlol94
    Part 1 of this song is just so perfectly crafted. There's not a single bad moment. Part 2 is just an amazing continuation of the theme of the song. One of their greatest epics.
  • @oxidhdazoth5214
    The rythm and harmony at 17:25 always catch me. Clearly the climax of the song for me
  • @auriculus3058
    I absolutely love the switch around 17:21 from "...your time has come" to "servants of the fallen...", it's so epic
  • @Asita666
    @Dream Theater, I cannot express how much greateful I am for this song!!! ❤❤❤
  • @LinuxDaily
    Dream Theater is just a magical band. By far my absolute favorite band!
  • @agent-sz2qj
    This is one of those songs that i didn't think much of the first time i've listened to but that grew on me eventually.
  • @wesleytrott6397
    Systematic Chaos was the album that got me into Dream Theater. Now I'm a die hard fan. Systematic Chaos is definitely in the top 3 albums for me. Scenes from a Memory and Black Clouds are probably the other 2.
