у меня один американский знакомый (с армянскими корнями) тут прикалывается над всякими текстами, музыкой и т.п. и вот один из последних его "приколов":
Hidden Dream Theater Song Meaning
You guys know Portnoy writes a lot of Dream Theater songs about his alcohol abuse, right?
I bet you didn't know their song "Hollow Years" from their album "Falling Into Infinity" was also originally about his alcohol abuse too.
Well, I did a little detective work and managed to find the lyrics to the demo of the song, entitled "Hollow Beers".
Hollow Beers (Demo to Hollow Years, by Dream Theater)
He's just the kind of man
You hear about
Who leaves his family for
A pint or two
They never saw the cans
He never said a word
He could drink 4 pints a day
Carry me to the closest bar
Bury me in the cans
Walk me across the kegs
And maybe you'll understand
Once the keg
You're crawling under
Is lifted off your shoulders
Once the beer that's raining
Over your head disappears
The noise that you'll hear
Is the crashing down of hollow beers
