Dream Theater - A Rite Of Passage [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: James LaBrie]
This is the new world order
Plague upon our peers
Spreading accusations
Of radical fears
The brotherhood of wisdom
Strength and dignity
Its rituals and secrets
Remain a mystery

[Pre-Chorus: James LaBrie & Mike Portnoy]
Beneath the ever watchful eye
The angels of the temple fly

[Chorus: James LaBrie & Mike Portnoy]
Turn the key, walk through the gates
The great ascent to reach a higher state
A rite of passage
The final stage, a sacred home
Unlock the door and lay upon the stone
A rite of passage

[Verse 2: James LaBrie]
Men of wealth and power
Influence and fate
Philosophers and leaders
Are members of the trade
Bound by open honor
Like the rose and cross
An enigmatic union
Of esoteric flux

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Instrumental Break with Guitar and Keyboard solos]

[Chorus]

[Outro: James LaBrie]
The seven stars, the rising sun
A perfect world, a new life has begun
A rite of passage
