Symphony X - Paradise Lost Lyrics video free download

This was the very first song I heard that got me introduced to Progressive music and metal shortly after. Still one of my personal favorites.

Lyrics:

In the cold misty morning

Gleaming rays awake the dawn

Here I stand, a stranger in this land

Does your conscience betray you?

Falling from grace

Feel the sun on my face

Does desire still hold true?

Mystified by her beauty

Does the hunter pity his pray

Under starless skies

All love must die and fade away

Take my hand, divine or damned

Make a stand, seize the day

Oh, yours or mine, damned of divine

Draw the line, come what may

Looking down from ethereal skies

Silent crystalline tears I cry

For all must say their last goodbye

To paradise

My yearning is silenced by angelic skin of white

Love conquers all though heaven's fall

This fateful night

Oh, yours or mine, damned of divine

Draw the line, serpentine

Love is a tragedy

All that I have, all that I'll ever need

Is right here inside

Let the winds of freedom be my guide

Looking down from ethereal skies

Silent crystalline tears I cry

For all must say their last goodbye

To paradise

Looking down from ethereal skies

Silent crystalline tears I cry

For all must say their last goodbye

To paradise

Say goodbye, goodbye, horror.

So I've cheated and I've lied

Been the victim of foolish pride

And I've begged and I've crawled

And I've battled it and bled for it all

Now I'll savor the downfall

Of paradise

Looking down from ethereal skies

Silent crystalline tears I cry

For all will say their last goodbye

To paradise

Looking down from ethereal skies

Silent crystalline tears I cry

For all will say their last goodbye

To paradise

Looking down from ethereal skies

Silent crystalline tears I cry

For all will say their last goodbye

To paradise
