Heavy Metal, Symphonic Metal, Progressive Metal, Power Metal

Savatage is a progressive heavy metal band founded by the brothers Jon and Criss Oliva in 1978 at Astro Skate in Tarpon Springs, Florida. The band is known for recording many concept albums. Although they were known mainly as a progressive metal band, their origins could be attributed to classic heavy metal and power metal, as expressed by their debut album, Sirens. The band has been inactive since the release of its last album in 2001, and have not performed live together since 2002, instead concentrating on their more commercially successful side project, Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

So after all those one night stands You've ended up with heart in hand A child alone On your own Retreating Regretful for the things you're not And all the things you haven't got Without a home A heart of stone Lies bleeding		And for all the roads you followed And for all you did not find And for all the dreams you had to leave behind
I am the way I am the light I am the dark inside the night I hear your hopes I feel your dreams And in the dark I hear your screams Don't turn away Just take my hand And when you make your final stand I'll be right there I'll never leave And all I ask of you Believe Your childhood eyes were so intense While bartering your innocence For bits of string The grown-up wings You needed		But when you had to add them up You found that there were not enough To get you in Pay for sins repeated
And for all the years you borrowed And for all the tears you cry And for all the fears you had to keep inside		I am the way I am the light I am the dark inside the night I hear your hopes I feel your dreams And in the dark I hear your screams
Don't turn away Just take my hand And when you make your final stand I'll be right there I'll never leave And all I ask of you is Believe		I never wanted to know Never wanted to see I wasted my time Till time wasted me I never wanted to go I always wanted to stay 'Cause the persons I am Are the parts that I play So I plot and I plan And I hope and I scheme To the lure of a night Filled with unfinished dreams And I'm holding on tight To a world gone astray As they charge me for years I can no longer pay
I am the way I am the light I am the dark Inside the night I hear your hopes I feel your dreams And in the dark I hear your screams Don't turn away Just take my hand And when you make your final stand I'll be right there I'll never leave And all I ask of you		Believe
