  • 作词 : Petrucci, John
    作曲 : Rudess, Jordan / Portnoy, Michael / Myung, John Ro / Petrucci, John
    Several years ago
    In a foreign town
    Far away from home
    I met the Count of Tuscany
    A young eccentric man
    Bred from royal blood
    Took me for a ride
    Across the open countryside
    Get into my car
    Let's go for a drive
    Along the way
    I'll be your guide
    Just step inside
    Maybe you'll recall
    A cannibal curator
    A character inspired by my brother's life
    Winding through the hills
    The city far behind
    On and on we drove
    Down narrow streets and dusty roads
    At last we came upon
    A picturesque estate
    On sprawling emerald fields
    An ancient world of times gone by
    Let me introduce
    My brother
    A bearded gentleman
    Historian
    Sucking on his pipe
    Distinguished accent
    Making me uptight
    No accident
    I want to stay alive
    Everything about this place
    Just doesn't feel right
    I
    I don't want to die
    Suddenly I'm frightened for my life
    I want to say goodbye
    This could be the last time
    You see me alive
    I
    I may not survive
    Knew it
    From the moment we arrived
    Would you like to see
    Our secret holy place
    I come here late at night
    To pray to him by candlelight
    Then peering through the glass
    I saw with disbelief
    Still dressed in royal clothes
    The saint behind the altar
    History recalls
    During times of war
    Legend has been traced
    Back inside these castle walls
    Where soldiers came to hide
    In barrels filled with wine
    Never to escape
    These tombs of oak
    Are where they died
    Down the cellar stairs
    I disappear
    Like the angel's share
    The end is near
    Come and have a taste
    A rare vintage
    All the finest wines
    Improved with age
    I want to stay alive
    Everything about this place
    Just doesn't feel right
    I
    I don't want to die
    Suddenly I'm frightened for my life
    I want to say goodbye
    This could be the last time
    You see me alive
    I
    I may not survive
    Knew it
    From the moment we arrived.
    Could this be the end?
    Is this the way I die?
    Sitting here alone
    No one by my side
    I don't understand
    I don't feel that I deserve this
    What did I do wrong?
    I just don't understand
    Give me one more chance
    Let me please explain
    It's all been circumstance
    I'll tell you once again
    You took me for a ride
    Promising a vast adventure
    The next that I know
    I'm frightened for my life
    Now wait a minute man
    That's not how it is
    You must be confused
    That isn't who I am
    Please don't be afraid
    I would never try to hurt you
    This is how we live
    Strange although it seems
    Please try to forgive
    The chapel and the saint
    The soldiers and the wine
    The fables and the tales
    All handed down through time
    Of course you're free to go
    Go and tell the world my story
    Tell about my brother
    Tell them about me
    The Count of Tuscany
