My grandpa fell into his eternal sleep today att the hospital, he was one of the most kindhearted people i know how. This song is my way of communicating with my feelings right now, rest in peace❤️
Every time I hear This song, it makes me cry. My adopted Dad just died from a two month long battle with cancer. His family decided to stop chemo because it was only making his body weaker. This song really means a lot to me.
+Ed Steenhorst Like most of the greatest music in the world its hidden by POP music... pitty the world misses out but our souls grow daily by this emotion
Anders Hjarlvig because the recordings wasn't made at the same time. I was the only one being recorded when I was there. And we were only there for around 30 min
hehe yeah thats how those things are...someone should have had more critical sense with that guy. Its a truely awesome song from an awesome band. But that doctor...damn its horrible :)
This song is amazing. one of the best and saddest ballads I've ever heard. I wish they would do a version without the "conversation" at the end. Would make it more appealing to ppl I show it too that hasnt listened to the whole concept album. Incredible feeling in Tommys voice.
Don't want you to go, is there no other way? I'll cherish this last kiss goodbye I will care for all you leave behind We won't let you go alone But we have made a tragic decision Because your wounds won't heal It's the final solution When every day hurts And tears keep on falling, we're letting you go The shadows are calling One last goodbye We're all here beside you Your soul will fade like a rose in the dark But your memory remains Night after night, living a dream Finally feeling my blood again The notes in that song Kept my heart beating strong all the way I can see clearly now I'm tired of constantly sleeping I will open my eyes again So ready to live now When every day hurts... I'm flying high, aim for paradise I'm hungry for life again What a rush Hold my family! I'm never letting go!
so sorry... wanted you to know that this is the first comment i've ever read that made me burst into tears. i hope your kitty is in paradise and i hope that you are doing well
What's so upsetting about this song is that she let her husband die because their son was born of an affair, which is why the bone marrow transplant procedure did not work. The child was not the main character's biological son.
+Xanatos You forgot the part where she had an affair. The main character would have been able to wake up from his coma if the son was his. But the son belonged to the man whom his wife had an affair with. So yes, she did let him die ultimately, because if the son was theirs then the main character would have lived. But she slept with another man, which ultimately led to the main character dying here.
Well, she did, it just matters what time you are looking at. She had power to stop all this in the first place, if she didn't sleep with another man other than her husband. That's a choice. She made the wrong one. So yes, ultimately she "let" her husband die, because she chose to have an affair.
My mother is the voice actor to the woman in the album. It completely destroyed me as a kid because it’s so easy to apply it to hearing her say those words in a real life scenario 😔 I’m glad she was part of this album though, such a masterpiece of music
