COTS pertama kali ini, kita bahas lagu dari band progressive rock, Dream Theater! Lagu ini adalah lagu slow rock, jgn kaget dengan lagu2 DT yang biasanya, DT memang sangat luar biasa dlm menciptakan lagu, keras total bisa, tp slow luar biasa, sangar!!!!!
Lagu ini menurutku sangat layak masuk jajaran best song forever! lagu yang akan selalu dinyanyikan dekade esok. Lagu bermakna sangat2 dalam mengusir kegalauan hidup, haha.
Lagu ini menceritakan tentang untuk apa hidup ini, dimana kita, apa artinya, untuk apa hidup, setelah mati lalu apa, kurang lebih seperti itu. B inggrisnya mudah di artikan, dengan kata2 yang sangat2 dalam, seperti sedikit di reff yang artinya :
jika aku mati besok, aku akan baik2 saja, karna aku percaya, setelah aku mati, rohku akan melanjutkan.
