Pardon me for my English, Systematic Chaos is my favorite album. And This song makes me tear all the time when I drive home from Moorhead all the way down to Minneapolis MN. The music matches perfectly with sightseeing of trees and the sky of the winter in Minnesota. It’s so obsessive, I keep think that the spirit of that girl has no escape, she still stuck in the pinewood, weeping in her eternal sorrow. Her love has become a burden trapped her soul there. Especially the ending solo makes me more paranoid. So sad, so hopeless and obsessive - music of Dream Theater!

I can't believe how Dream Theater fans criticised this album so much. It's better than all their recent work that came after this.

This one along with Finally Free, Honor thy Father, Stream of Conciousness, The Count of Tuscany and of course Octavarium are the ones I love the most, but come on, its DT, whatever they gave us is awesome no matter what.

I just really dont undersatnd how anyone can critize a DT album so much! The astonishing is just a piece of work, for me its not an album, is 1 song, and is beutifull the way they decide to tell a story and dialogues and everything and deserves to be on the top with albums like Octavarium, or train of tought or images and words, along with every DT abum

JP's guitar outro takes me into orbit. Sheer brilliance.

Been a fan since 1989, i'm 52 now...still fucking love them. Saw them Glasgow 1993, wonderful memories. So pleased to see them get the recognition they deserve. Thanks for your posts.

My God, this is not a song... This is a masterpiece. Powerful, sweet and so melancholy at the same time...

One of the most beautiful ballads ever

This song takes me to another dimension. You go on a trip to an unknown world.

Love this song..

And as usual, Dream Theater goes off on some weird tangent in the middle of their lengthy song preventing them from being mainstream, lol. But we love them anyway. Keep doing you, even if it doesn't make sense to most consumers :)

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

One of the best songs ever written, fact!

great song and lyrics, i use my freedom to protect you

To me this song is about Jesus Christ and whether we choose to accept Him or not. "She" is humanity and "he" is Jesus. "Remember me, I gave you life."

What a song

DREAM THEATRE. WOW IT'S AMAZING. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Beautiful song.

This is possibly the saddest song I've ever heard

wow........... love it awesome strong congratulations

Great song

This is what uplift as high as too difficult to reach even for me 😢❤🙏🏻

10/10 DT is still on a whole other level. Got to see them live about 6 times. Might as well make it 7. Seen a lot of bands live. DT still the best sounding live. Check out the YTSE jam if you doubt me.

Simply beautiful

I always skip over this. At least when it came out. Maybe because it's so sad. I have to give it another chance here in March 2020. I CANNOT listen to 'Disappear' from 6DOIT, because it reminds me of my dad that i lost around the time that came out.

There is so much dross out there and yet here we are, DT fans arguing amongst themselves over their preferences within the extraordinary DT discography. Let’s stick together guys 🤟

Myung's bass feels like a slap to the face.

wonderful!

The people that criticise Dream Theater for stretching their boundaries musically are the same ones that embraced their ability to stretch the boundaries of prog in the first place. IMO that is hypocritical. Being a musician myself, I understand their internal need to grow and present different concepts. Their ability to last this long is based on that ability. If you need a band where every song sounds the same then do the POP thing. If you want to expand your ability to appreciate musical growth then stay with a band through its metamorphosis.

This song will be played at my funeral

Will not forget You. A.

Wow...much of DT make my soul really moving, confused. I love DT

A woman was going to die but a man saved her and died in her place. She then wants to take her life by drowning in a river, cause she can't stand the fact that she lost him. His spirit reached to her from heaven because he's meant to take her soul, but he tries to convince her to not do it, because if she takes her own life she won't go to heaven with him.

@Lauren-se5bu

To me it's about Jesus Christ and whether we choose to accept Him or not. "Remember me, I gave you life." If you take the interpretation of a random man saving a woman this doesn't really make sense because he didn't give her life. "Don't turn your back on paradise" - paradise is Heaven.
