Savatage - Edge Of Thorns Lyrics






An offering of reasons
We put them all in play
A covering of treasons
That one by one we let slip away

A solitary dancer
So lost upon her stage

I have seen you on the edge of dawn
Felt you there before you were born
Balanced your dreams upon the edge of thorns
But I don't think about you anymore

A study made from winter
Of summers long ago
And dreams that used to glitter
Safely now hidden under snow

And so we end the chapter
And let the stage lights fade

I have seen you on the edge of dawn
Felt you there before you were born
Balanced your dreams upon the edge of thorns
But I don't think about you anymore

  1. G.... e....

    God entered into my body, like a body, same size. worlds only christian. God makes me eat turtles

  2. d.... ....

    I'm sorry, but a piano just doesn't belong in a metal band.

    d.... ....

    Fuck off

    d.... ....

    I think the keyboards works rather well with most progressive metal, deep purple, rainbow, dream theatre, etc have all used keyboards, the great thing about metal is there so many different types to explore listening to, one day you may be in a certain mood and hear something in this style of metal that you will like or you might say i dont like it at all it stinks, but I would suggest giving savatage a 2nd chance they have some great songs. Check out Hall of the Mountain King if you want it heaver. 🤘

  3. D.... C....

    Nuss, q voz é essa? Top!

  4. R.... R....

    WOW me lucky to find this A VERY FAB BAND

  5. J.... B....

    BEEN JAMIMG TO THIS BAND SINCE MTV HEADBANGERS BALL SATURDAY NIGHT GUTTER BALLET....GREAT HARMONY AND KEYBOARDS/GUITAR PLAYING...IF YOUR JUST DISCOVERING THEM THEY WILL NOT DISAPOINT,CHECK EARLY STUFF OUT ON U-TUBE!

  6. t.... d....

    are there any Turkish

  7. C.... ....

    Fallen by Archon Angel has Zak Stevens on vocals. I think it's his new band. Proof that Savatage needs to make a new album already.

    C.... ....

    Yes but these days Power Metal is being ignored in favor of really just garbage music

  8. A.... L....

    Que trabalho! Até a capa é uma obra de arte! Só lamento pros leigos em não apreciar essa qualidade musical! 😃😛😎

    @Ana Larissa gostei muito da musica train,train do black foot.
    outras bandas que tem músicas ótimas é blue oyster cult e saxo que tem uma das minhas musicas preferidas que é crusader

    A.... L....

    @Warriør sim são todas bandas ótimas, estou curtindo molly hatchet, Terry reid , doc holliday e Mercyful fate! 😎🎶🎼✌😃

    A.... L....

    @Ana Larissa mercyful fate eu nao gosto muito dessa pegada meio satanica,é diferente do caso do iron maiden sabe que é só por marketing e olha que o maiden nao tem letras muito satanicas não,o mercyful fate tem um jeito meio ''assustador'' rsrs mas doc holiday é muito bom também

    A.... L....

    @Warriør na verdade eu gosto é do ritmo rápido do fate, as letras eu nem ligo, me lembra Metallica logo no inicio de carreira. ☺

  9. L.... I....

    I love this song..A Triumph over Limerence

  16. R.... S....

    Loved them back in the day. They morphed into Trans Siberian Orchestra. They are Christmas on steroids. Fantastic still live!

  17. j.... w....

    Great band great songs check them out all albums rock trust me the dude in the comments can't be wrong

    j.... w....

    I second this!! I came across these guys purely by chance too, a while back. Hall of the Mountain King album hit me like a tonne of alloy. It blew me away and still does.

    For sure - those reading on who haven't already, go check out the full albums.

  18. F.... a....

    This is tubular bells, lol.

  19. T.... ....

    Damn! I only found out about this song and band from Powerwolf's cover. How is that possible I miss this band?!

    T.... ....

    Powerwolf does great covers but this original version still the best

  20. J.... G....

    I see a dude staring at a beautiful woman sitting on the snout of a huge crocodile in the woods . Intelligent and philisophical lyrics embellished in ' out of the box ' classical Metal . Love that lead at about 3 : 30 . Great band !

  21. C.... P....

    Powerwolf did a nice cover of this song

  22. j.... v....

    I miss those days 30 years ago. Matt 52

    Those days, as you say, a great time to be alive! I'm 55 and can't believe how fast time goes. I totally agree with you, I miss those days.

  25. I.... ....

    Dat cover art, though.

    I.... ....

    What about it?

    I heard the Powerwolf cover this. Original is great.

  29. a.... ....

    can't believe the world hidden this masterpiece to me for so long.
    Why the hell the music is so utterly useless and empty nowadays, why !?!?!?

    a.... ....

    The world no longer has morals that's the problem

  30. B.... K....

    Super song super Focal!

  31. N.... B....

    Love Oliva ,don't get me wrong, but Zach's done a hell of a good job filling his shoes.

  32. t.... ....

    But I dont think about you anymoooreeeee!!!

  34. M.... G....

    Sounds like Queensryche.

    M.... G....

    sorry, but there is no comparison to "Queensryche", but they also good.

    M.... G....

    @ABDUL No sense comparing, I too was a stickler for doing this constantly up until recently.. Not that you are doing so but my way of quitting that mentality was to realise that there's no reason to bring another act down just to put your favourites above them.. Let the music and what it means to yourself and your life speak for itself 😉🤞🏻 peace brother! P.S operation Mindcrime and Hall of the Mountain King are my #2 favourites of all time lol.

    M.... G....

    It’s just something I noticed.

    M.... G....

    @@Ross Moriarty .... for Queensryche mine favorite album is. "Promised land" i consider operation Mindcrime or Empire theirs commercial accomplishment albums, like Metallica's black album. but that's mine personal opinion only. take care. and as Manowar sang it "Heavy metal or no metal at all"

    M.... G....

    @@MiketheYung God.... its perfectly okay to express your views, its yours right. keep it up.

  35. B.... F....

    Amazing album beginning to end. R.I.P. Criss. You are missed

  36. �.... ....

    Good!!!!!!

  37. R.... C....

    Savatage is horrifically underrated

    R.... C....

    I would say horrifically unknown

    R.... C....

    @Marc Noirel Either way it's sad. They rock

    R.... C....

    They had a video or two on MTV. When the music industry allegedly deliberately hindered their deserved spot-light success. I never saw the videos back then, maybe Headbanger's balls played them, but I only heard them on their albums.

  38. B.... S....

    1993? No way, sounds something out of 2007

  39. A.... p....

    Still awesome

  40. M.... s....

    Don't you all know where Trans-Siberian Orchestra Came from???

  41. N.... L....

    He sure made a lot of emphasis on stating he doesn't think about her any more, tho

  42. M.... K....

    Today I found this band......oh god !!

    M.... K....

    @Dafyd Maddz ..yeah

    M.... K....

    @Manoj Kumar Baruah Listen to the album Hall of the Mountain King too. One of the very best heavy metal albums ever.

    M.... K....

    @Dafyd Maddz ..I checked it..great song ... sounds like manowar or running wild

    M.... K....

    No, bro ! Today we found " the world " !

    M.... K....

    @Quyền Trần ... right

  43. J.... t....

    This is one of the most untalented stupid bands of all time geez get som Obituary or something..
    This really sucks

    R.... D....

    What year?

    R.... D....

    @GABRIELA ACEVEDO in the 80s

  56. W.... F....

    Sounds like cross between Dream Theater and Queensryche. Neat cover, too.

  57. T.... ....

    What a perfect song. Melodic and energetic at the same time. The album cover is just brilliant. One of the most beautiful covers i have ever seen. The whole package is just so beautiful!

  58. M.... R....

    just great kids dont know what their missing

    M.... R....

    What?? Im 13 and listen to those music every day.
    Yes, I think I missed something.
    I quite often wish I was born in the 70s. To be able to make/listen to music in the 80s! MtV true certainly much than today.

  59. �.... �....

    Pure pure pure utter classic!!!!
    A precious gem in heavy metal music till the end of time.

    R.... v....

    @Ryan's vlogging it I'm from Florida and saw Iron Maiden last week. Anyway yeah his legacy should be up there with Randy and Dimebag.

    R.... v....

    @GABRIELA ACEVEDO are they still playing together anymore yeah like I said I was in Orlando now back in Indiana thanks for sharing ps do you watch truth SURGE his a pretty good guitarist looks like a zz top Santa check him out and there's a kid from Argentina I think he plays guitar quiet well he played with the scorpions last year
