From A Dramatic Turn of Events

The Lost Not Forgotten Songfacts explains that the instrumentation of this song found John Petrucci harping back to 1950s Hollywood movies like Ben Hur so he wrote historical lyrics about an ancient Persian elite fighting force that died out.

    It is sad when a 10min DT song doesn't surprise you. Still like the band but they are very predictable.

    The amount of technical wankery in this is incredible, even by DT standards.

    Intro sounds like Muse. But fuck me the awesomeness of the guitar and keyboards makes up for it.

    The intro is possibly the best DT intro I have ever heard, and it's pushing its way up the list for best intro from anyone that I've ever heard.

    The lyrics are very much Dune-esque, especially close to Leto II, the God-Emperor of Dune. Very good song.
