Among the images of dear departed
Here with memories so closely guarded
There's an old man standing all alone
As he waits among the unforgiven
Here among the souls no longer living
Lost in chains of sin still unatoned
He carves his stone
Well a man's got to do what a man must do
But I'll never give my soul to you
No fallen angel's prophecy
Will ever take hold of the man you see
So here I stand all alone
With chisel in hand I work my stone
And leave a message for all to see
I've lived a life of insanity
And carve that stone
And on that final night
You know I dream of you
And in a flash of light
I carved that stone right through
Yeah I carved that stone right through
The lyrics HE CARVES HIS STONE of SAVATAGE is also present in the album Edge of thorns (1993)
Savatage è un gruppo musicale heavy metal statunitense formatosi a Tampa, Florida, nei primi anni '80. Il nucleo fondante era composto dai fratelli Jon Oliva (voce e tastiere) e Criss Oliva (chitarra), insieme al batterista Steve "Doc" Wacholz. La band guadagnò rapidamente una solida base di fan in Florida e nel 1983 pubblicò il suo album di debutto, *Sirens*. L'anno successivo, Savatage firmò con la Atlantic Records e nel 1985 uscì il loro album d'esordio per l'etichetta, *Power of the Night*, che segnò un punto di svolta nella loro carriera. Dopo il primo tour di rilievo, al gruppo si unì il bassista Johnny Lee Middleton alla fine del 1985, completando la formazione definitiva. Savatage è noto per il suo sound epico e melodico, influenzato dal progressive rock e dalla musica classica. Tra i brani più rappresentativi figurano *Power of the Night*, *Hall of the Mountain King* e *When the Crowds Are Gone*.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
