Lyrics :
Walls are closing
Anxiously
Channel surfing
Frantically
Burning City
Smoke and fire
Planes we’re certain
Faith inspired
No clues
A complete surprise
Who’ll be
Coming home tonight
Heads all turning
Towards the sky
Towers crumble
Heroes die
Who would wish this on our people
And proclaim that His will be done
Scriptures they heed have misled them
All praise their Sacrificed Sons
All praise their Sacrificed Sons
Teach them
What to think and feel
Your ways
So enlightening
Words they preach
I can’t relate
If God’s true Love
Are acts of Hate
Who would wish this on our people
And proclaim that His will be done
Scriptures they heed have misled them
All praise their Sacrificed Sons
All praise their Sacrificed Sons
God on High
Our mistakes
Will mankind be extinct?
There’s no time, time to waste
Who serves the truth
For Heavens’ sake
Duration : 0:10:44

@jdark15 Yeah, Dream Theater was heavily influenced by The Beatles so i wouldn’t be surprised if this was done on purpose.

Maybe to show …
Maybe to show people, that we should not judge all Muslims, but that there are some extremists, and maybe trying to show them, that terrorism is wrong!
It’s an guess.

Watch Score video. It is about 9/11. Although I can’t understand as to DT employing an Iranian dude to lead Octav. orchestra.

Are you an idiot …
Are you an idiot Denny? You can’t exactly say lyrical meaning is clear? Try listening to the first minute of the song. No cheezit for you.

@MrBatousi: I’m …
@MrBatousi: I’m pretty sure it’s about 9/11, hence the name “Sacrificed Sons.”

yea you can, what …
yea you can, what eles could it possiblly be talking about. Some lyrical meaning has diffirent interpretations cos its not always obvious, but them lines clearly are. Its a shame semantics and honesty aint best firends, sopose DT wouden’t of had a reason to write this song then.

@Andyrude666 You …
Amazing song is amazing.
@Andyrude666 You can’t exactly say lyrical meaning is clear, since theres more than one way to view all lyrical interpretations. Not arguing, just saying

Yea this is there …
Yea this is there best song ever i think, Scenes from a memory is my fav album tho, and pull me under. iv seen them live twice and look forward to the next time there live shows are amazing. Yea the lyrics are clearly about 9/11, “burning city
smoke and fire planes we’re certain faith inspired Heads all turning towards the sky towers crumble heroes die. There songs and lyrics have always had religious spiritual referance to them.

Tell me what you …
Tell me what you guys think, This song seems to be about the Islamic religion and how they think that they please God by killing some of the sinners, “Who would wish this on our people
And proclaim that His will be done
Scriptures they heed have misled them” and “Words they preach
I can’t relate
If God’s true Love
Are acts of Hate” Im not all that sure if i got what the Islams believe completely correct, what you guys think?

This is easily one of their best songs, in my opinion.
