Beyond This Life Lyrics - Scenes From A Memory - Dream Theater

Headline: "Murder, young girl killed 

Desperate shooting at Echo's Hill 

Dreadful ending, killer died 

Evidently suicide." 

A witness heard a horrifying sound 

He ran to find a woman dead and 

Lying on the ground 

Standing by her was a man 

Nervous, shaking, gun in hand 

Witness says he tried to help 

But he'd turned the weapon on himself 

His body fell across that poor young girl 

After shouting out in vain 

The witness ran to call for assistance

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

A sad close to a broken love affair 

Our deeds have traveled far 

What we have been is what we are 

Our deeds have traveled far 

What we have been is what we are 

She wanted love forever 

But he had another plan 

He fell into an evil way 

She had to let him down 

She said, "I can't love a wayward man." 

She may have found a reason to forgive 

If he had only tried to change 

Was their fatal meeting prearranged? 

Had a violent struggle taken place? 

There was every sign that lead there 

Witness found a switchblade on the ground 

Photos 

Was the victim unaware? 

They continued to investigate 

They found a note in the killer's pocket 

It could have been a suicide letter 

Maybe he had lost her love 

I feel there's only one thing left to do 

I'd sooner take my life away 

Than live with losing you 

Our deeds have traveled far 

What we have been is what we are 

Our deeds have traveled far 

What we have been is what we are 

All that we learn this time 

(What we have been is what we are) 

Is carried beyond this life 

All that we learn this time 

(What we have been is what we are) 

Is carried beyond this life 

Our deeds have traveled far 

What we have been is what we are 

Our deeds have traveled far 

What we have been is what we are 

All that we learn this time 

(What we have been is what we are) 

Is carried beyond this life 

All that we learn this time 

(What we have been is what we are) 

Is carried beyond this life
