Savatage Picture
Savatage is a heavy metal/ progressive metalband founded by the brothers Jon and Criss Oliva in 1979. The band is known for recording many rock operas. Early on, Savatage was a traditional heavy metal band, who stood out from the pack due to guitarist Criss Oliva's uncommonly heavy riffing and vocalist Jon Oliva's unique vocal stylings. Following the failure of Fight for the Rock, an attempt to commercialize their sound, Savatage began moving in a more operatic direction, releasing a number of rock opera albums in collaboration with producer Paul O'Neill. After the tragic death of Criss Oliva, the band soldiered on to continued critical acclaim but diminishing commercial success.

Savatage

Behind the wheel just went along
I'm tired of hearing the same old song
Look
I rule the night
No end in sight
I think I'm going insane, oh yeah

Engines grind
I hit the red line
I'm movin' fast
Forget the past
I'm burning tread
In my head
I am gone
Twenty four hours ago
Yeah

Got to escape
Can't take any more
I grabbed my suitcase
And kicked down the door
Yeah

I've got blood shot eyes
Hypnotized
I feel no pain
Oh yeah

Engines grind
I hit the red line
I'm movin' fast
Forget the past
I'm burning tread
In my head
I am gone
Twenty four hours ago
Yeah

Engines grind
I hit the red line
I'm movin' fast
Forget the past
I'm burning tread
In my head
I am gone
Twenty four hours ago
Yeah

Twenty four hours ago
Yeah
