Keep living, keep loving and keep listening to these beautiful songs.. I wish you all happy, healthy and prosperous lives❤
She never really had a chance On that fateful moonlit night Sacrificed without a fight A victim of her circumstance Now that I've become aware And I've exposed this tragedy A sadness grows inside of me It all seems so unfair I'm learning all about my life By looking through her eyes Just beyond the churchyard gates Where the grass is overgrown I saw the writing on her stone I felt like I would suffocate In loving memory of our child So innocent, eyes open wide I felt so empty as I cried Like part of me had died I'm learning all about my life By looking through her eyes And as her image Wandered through my head I wept just like a baby As I lay awake in bed And I know what it's like To lose someone you love And this felt just the same She wasn't given any choice Desperation stole her voice I've been given so much more in life I've got a son, I've got a wife I had to suffer one last time To grieve for her and say goodbye Relive the anguish of my past To find out who I was at last The door has opened wide I'm turning with the tide Looking through her eyes
Beautifully written . Touching been words ❤thanks for your track lyrics are great Touch my heart and mind and soul ❤choices are take from us without having anything to do with our wishes sad ❤
every time I hear this song - I cry. my best friend died on my birthday in 2006 and there are so many parts of this song that make my mind go adrift with the memories I had of her. she was the woman I was going to marry one day. I've never met another human being like her and I doubt I ever will. I used to drive to my doctor appointments when I found out I was slowly being strangled by an incurable disease and this would come up on my stereo and tears would roll down my face as every lyric here spoke to me. this song feels like the moment she died and I realized there was the greatest thing ripped away from me. I went to her funeral and left the town I grew up in for 24 years a month later. I've spent every day, every moment seeking for someone to compare her to and help make all of the pain I experience worth it. sometimes waking up is an act of bravery itself but I do it every day despite having nothing anymore. I have had friends come and go, girlfriends almost wives come and go and opportunities slip away. I've had no one to talk to over the last few years as every thing slowly went away and my life became more and more unbearable with my lingering diagnosis, loss of all friends, and so many of those opportunities gone. once when I thought I had an endless font of friends and energy around me it has slowly been zapped away to leave me where I am at today. this song always brings out the worst in me, it makes me cry not just because of losing my best friends but that ever since I've lost her I've lost myself on the way.
I'm sorry about your loss, I hope you gather the strenght to overcome it. You know she would not like to see you drift away like this. Hang in there, man. My wife had an accident a month and a half ago, she too was my best friend for seven weird and beautiful years. I came to youtube to listen to this song too, 'cause it helps me to feel the pain and maybe become stronger with it. You're not alone, everyone is connected.
Unknown User My best friend, my girlfriend allready two and half year soon, is alive. But her lif has been like a hell. Her parants keeps her in their home almost like a homeslave. She can study, yes, but she doesn't get permission to go outside to town hang out, because she has to clean, wash laundry/dishes, work like a babysitter for her younger stepbrothers every single day. She has to fifth her parents leg!!! Also she is the one who is all the time that person who makes everythin wrong (I really think her parents are affected by narsism...) Only sometimes she can hang out with me, but only sometimes, and for good reason of course... She doesn't have hardly any friends because according that she has been in home most part of her life, she has an illness which affects her look (I can't explain) so she has been bullied a quite lot. She has thought a lot of suicide and something about hurting herself... I have tried make her life to meaningfull, she means for me so much (otherwise I would be bachelor because this relationship hasn't been ever easy. It doesn't help any that I know she has some trauma but she doesn't tell anything about them, she keeps those serious things inside her. I can just think if she is victim of a raiping by her stepfather or something when she was young girl... AWFUL!!!) but sometimes I'm just afraid that she kills herself in very bad day... Thank God she is 18 in next month and she can leave her family who really not show the love to my girl!!! But we're still afraid about future... I DO NOT GIVE UP maybe she is my wife some day Sorry for bad English
My fiance died the same day he proposed to me. I never even told anyone about our engagement until recently. That was back in 2006 for us as well. He passed on his best friend's birthday. We even had plans to celebrate with him later that night. I know how you feel...it destroyed me. I feel like I died that day. I changed. He called me the light that was bringing him out of the darkness. But then he died and the darkness consumed me. It's been 12 years for both of our tragedies. I'm sad for you but I do take comfort knowing I'm not the only one missing a love after so many years.
I know that Dream Theater is loved for their complex, prog metal virtuosity. But really, it's these smaller songs that draw me to their music. Surrounded, Hollow Years, Solitary Shell, Through Her Eyes... so many great songs that resonate as much for emotion as for instrumental mastery.
Dream theater is so much more than the guitars and the drums. Its their music as a whole. The melodies, the lyrics and Labrie's magical vocals. Love DT.
Man, I know how you feel because it's exactly the same in my case. They helped somuch and so often. They are part of me now. I have all their albums. Keep listening man ! :)
After my mother passed away, this song was the only thing that kept me alive, so in a sense I owe my life to Dream Theater.. Wouldnt have been here today if it werent for "Through Her Eyes" and "The Spirit Carries On"...
I first heard this from dragon ball z *The History Of Trunks* one of the most beautiful songs I have heard in my entire life. Especially the music during the first minute. 😭
Always thinking about my deceased unborn daughter: "she never really had a chance, on that faithful moonlight night, sacrificed without a fight, a victim of a circumstance" ...
My dad is a big dream theater fan like forever and I remember when i was just a little girl,(I’m 33 now)he made this his anthem for my mom, so every time i here this song I can’t help but cry ❤️ it’s so beautiful.
Do any of yo even realize that this song is a track from an entire album that is a story about a girl being murdered and a guy dreaming about her. This song is about a girl named Victoria. Look up the whole album : metropolis part two scenes from a memory
Always the same since i first listen..... 2013 evening class kal laia ka ngaihthlak țhin, zan arsi leh thla eng ut hnuaia mahni chauha ngaihthlak nuam tak a ni
I am!! With love...United States of America. We are strong...I'm sorry we cannot help more..I'm sorry, but I love my country and I am listening..legally maybe we can "hang out " at least wat is calleedd
(Chandel Dist. manipur, India. 7:26pm, 22- October) I tested Covid positive, I'm here in quarantine centre. Listening to this song again and again & wondering when exactly i discovered This..... i literally live inside the song everytime i listen to it.....
When you understand what a song try to express, so sad so sad, but we need to get over it. Even we suffer one last time, we need to stay strong. That is what I thought when I listen to this song.
I lost the love of my life and I can't carry on. A forklift driver bumped the crane he was in. I love and miss you my handsome. Till we meet again i know you will be there waiting for me
It’s from History of Trunks. Goku died but Trunks was going back in the time machine with the antidote to the virus he died by. As Trunks is departing in the time machine, this song plays and Bulma his mother says, “He’s in your hands now Goku”. And then the credits roll and this song keeps playing.
Me... December 2019....still living in the dream caused by Rock and the time that was 1969s....dream theater and john especially, you kept me alive in the darkest of times.. Thank you
For you my beloved little sister. I'm sure You live a better life over there. You had been an angel of great suffering and sacrifice. I'm sure you are surrounded by loving wings of angels over and blessed with heavens.
Hey Julie...it's been 8 years since you left...and i'm still missing you... In another life...will hold you tight In another life...will never let you go In another life...i promise we will go together.
I will meet you in the next time(I promis you) Where we can be together(I promis you) I will wait till then in heaven (I promis you) I promis. I promis Megadeth : promises
Me and my late best friend song we have been spent most of our time with this song. It really brings me my friend image who is gone some months back, wondering if my late friend in heaven know me listening to this song
Still waiting on a text from him.. Its been 3 months, i don't even know if he's taking chemo anymore.. I pray he'll come back soon.. There's no way he can leave this colorless world and my lifeless soul just like that... I believe in you dear💖. Update 2 years later 2024/03/25 So..i forgot i even wrote this here.. It was the darkest times of my life truly, and i can't tell you it had a happy ending, but it was what God intended, my beloved dear passed away on this day in 2022, i have truly felt like a part of me had died with him, but he's in a better place now, better than this cruel world, today i came back to this song because it reminds me of him and how much of a warrior he is, i truly did learn all about my life by looking through his eyes. You'll always be missed Dimas💜
When i hear this song and The spirit carries on i think of my lovely grandma ❤ she leaving us 11-08-2006 and i'am still looking through her eyes. Ik mis u nog steeds Oma ❤
@@eagleMMMm hi yes very deep lyrics and the spirit carries also.. it's so beautyful and supports you on the moments that you missing that special person. My grandma was for me a ver special for me. I could laugh, cry and feeling save with her. And sometimes i hear myself using her words when i try to see it trough her eyes. What she would say. And i ask her help sometimes and feel she's still around me also after 13 years!
same as me when my beloved father died i felt the world was dark. but father before he died advised me so that I would not be too sad after death ... I always sing the song called the best of times, even though in my heart ... goodbye my father
@@eagleMMMm your father will always be arround you. Of course it was a dark time you loosing him in life missing the good times his words everything but think what he would be saying to you when you asking when he was a life. Sorry for my bad english.
lagu ini ingetin waktu sama mantan aku,,,nyesek denger lagu ini, sampai kapanpun aku akan selalu mengingatmu.merindukanmu, dalam diamku,,, kau adalah orang yang aku harapkan,,kau tercipta mengisi hidupku tapi ternyta kau tidak tiercipta untuk hidup bersamaku, hanya kenangan yang masih aku ingat,,aku simpan,,, sakit slalu ingat kamu,,,karena kita terpisah bukan karena keinginan hati aku atau hati kamu,, entahlah,,,aku tidak bisa berbicara apapun saat itu, karena aku dalam keadaaan yang sedang sulit aku ungkapkan, aku selalu menangis ingat kamu, hanya mennagis dan menangis,, hanya doa yang bisa ku panjtkan padaNYA untuk kebaikanmu yang jauh disana, miss u,,miss u,, sampai matipun aku yakin hati ini akan selalu mengingatmu,,, kisah amnesia kita yang kita lakukan bersama,,,akan sellau aku ingat,,,miss u dear Muhammad Irfandi
Such an amazing new generation of music in my life and I am so happy to have it in my life .....I am in such a dark place in my life that seems to be hopless in a certain way, so thanks for this opportunity to be able to experience the connection between this song
Questa dolce ballata dei Dream teather arriva al cuore semplice intensa non banale una delle loro migliori senza.dubbio Splendida l' interpretazione del cantante James la Brie
As wonderful as this song is, it MUST be heard in the context of the entire album, Scenes from a Memory. The full story of the album is deeply touching and something well worth listening to.
Honestly? I’m a huge fan of Scenes from a Memory. It’s my fav DT album by far. But this is THE one song of the whole record that people can appreciate even without knowing the whole context. A lot of people can relate to the grief of losing someone(particularly a young one). That said, when you do get to dive deep into the album’s plot, I find it very amusing that, in this song, the lyrics (which are Nicholas’ thoughts) portray Victoria as this quasi-saint figure, pure and faultless, while in the very next track, Home, they show (in a very… direct way) her cheating on her boyfriend with his own brother.
@@lLpars Many of the songs stand on their own merit, but I genuinely think that a concept album needs to be heard in its entirety. It's possible to read a chapter of a book and enjoy it, but without the whole story, it will be lacking something.
я слушаю эту песнь уже 12 год, самое любимое произведение группы, чувства переполняют меня, как будто я парю, как медитация. Эта мелодия отражает мою душу.
