The Count Of Tuscany




[Music by Petrucci, Portnoy, Rudess and Myung, Lyrics by John Petrucci]


Several years ago

In a foreign town

Far away from home

I met the Count of Tuscany


A young eccentric man

Bred from royal blood

Took me for a ride

Across the open countryside


Get into my car

Let's go for a drive

Along the way

I'll be your guide

Just step inside


Maybe you recall

A cannibal curator

A character inspired by my brother's life


Winding through the hills

The city far behind

On and on we drove

Down narrow streets and dusty roads


At last we came upon

A picturesque estate

On sprawling emerald fields

An ancient world of times gone by


Let me introduce

My brother

A bearded gentleman

Historian

Sucking on his pipe

Distinguished accent

Making me uptight

No accident


I want to stay alive

Everything about this place

Just doesn't feel right

I

I don't want to die


Suddenly I'm frightened for my life


I want to say goodbye

This could be the last time

You see me alive


I-

I may not survive

Knew it from the moment we arrived


Would you like to see

Our secret holy place?

I come here late at night

To pray to him by candle light


Then peering through the glass

I saw with disbelief

Still dressed in royal clothes

The saint behind the altar


History recalls

During times of war

Legend has been traced

Back inside these castle walls


Where soldiers came to hide

In barrels filled with wine

Never to escape

These tombs of oak are where they died


Down the cellar stairs

I disappear

Like the English heir

The end is near


Come and have a taste

A rare vintage

All the finest wines

Improve with age


I want to stay alive

Everything about this place

Just doesn't feel right

I

I don't want to die

Suddenly I'm frightened for my life


I want to say goodbye

This could be the last time

You see me alive


I

I may not survive

Knew it from the moment we arrived


Could this be the end?

Is this the way I die?

Sitting here alone

No one by my side


I don't understand

I don't feel that I deserve this

What did I do wrong?

I just don't understand


Give me one more chance

Let me please explain

It's all been circumstance

I'll tell you once again


You took me for a ride

Promising a vast adventure

Next thing that I know

I'm frightened for my life


Now wait a minute man

That's not how it is

You must be confused

That isn't who I am


Please don't be afraid

I would never try to hurt you

This is how we live

Strange although it seems

Please try to forgive


The chapel and the saint

The soldiers and the wine

The fables and the tales

All handed down through time


Of course you're free to go

Go and tell the world my story

Tell about my brother

Tell them about me

The Count of Tuscany...
