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.

All That I Bleed Lyrics
Savatage
Someone
Got themselves a letter
In the mail the other day
It's already worn and tattered
And I guess
It gives away
All the things we keep inside
All the things that really matter
The face puts on its best disguise
And all is well
Until the heart
Betrays
She knows
As she reads the letter
That things were bound to stray
Winds blow
She pulls her coat tighter
And the letter flies away
With all the things she keeps inside
All the things that really matter
The face puts on its best disguise
And all is well
Until the heart betrays
Lord bring on the night
Wrap it all around me
Let it hold me tight
Soak up all that I bleed
And I'll fly away
Yeah I'll fly away
Yeah I'll fly away
Watch me
Lord bring on the night
Wrap it all around me
Let it hold me tight
Soak up all that I bleed
I bleed
