O Chloroform - Lyrics - Fates Warning
Fates Warning is an American progressive metal band, formed in 1982 by vocalist John Arch, guitarists Jim Matheos and Victor Arduini, bassist Joe DiBiase, and drummer Steve Zimmerman in Hartford, Connecticut. Fates Warning has experienced numerous line-up changes. From 1982 to 1996 â and temporarily in 2010 â Matheos and DiBiase were the only remaining original members of the band, with Matheos being the only constant member. Their current lineup consists of guitarists Jim Matheos and Frank Aresti, vocalist Ray Alder, bassist Joey Vera, and drummer Bobby Jarzombek. As a pioneer of the American progressive metal movement, Fates Warning rose to international fame in the 1980s and was ranked as one of the early "flagship bands of progressive metal" along with Queensrÿche, who were responsible for creating, developing and popularizing that genre.

See what you've done, holding your tongue
Now tell me who's the delirious one
So safe and warm o chloroform
Keep us from coming around again
Let's say the sun turns up again
Let's say it's the same one that's ever come
No stars can round you up again
They're suffering so long, so long
That photograph tore you in half
So the sane can escape the past
True to form o chloroform
Get the windows and the door
Home on the border
You can write yourself a letter
Wave to the camera
And keep your body warm
Let's say the sun turns up again
Let's say it's the same one that's ever come
No stars can round you up again
They're suffering so long, so long
And no one takes over when you asleep
Ten hours of eternity
Tell yourself and call yourself a refugee
We're suffering so long, so long
