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.

Forever After Lyrics
Savatage
You watch the news on your color tv
Are you immune to what you see
Death and destruction
Till it numbs your mind
To the rise and fall of all mankind
Hey you
What ya gonna do
When it's your world they're selling out
But, you got your plot
Smokin' your pot
Till the trees are all dead
You never knew, hadn't a clue
You can't hide your head, head
In your hands
Nobody's safe
Forever after
Let's kill the leaders
Make it end
But then we realize
We are them
We buy the plastics
Burn the fuels
We make the choice
We are the rules
Hey you
What ya gonna do
When it's your world they're selling out
But, you got your plot
Smokin' your pot
Till the trees are all dead
You never knew, hadn't a clue
You can't hide your head, head in your hands
No one's safe
Forever after
Hey you
What ya gonna do
When it's your world they're selling out
But, you got your plot
Smokin' your pot
Till the trees are all dead
You never knew, hadn't a clue
You can't hide your head, head in your hands
Nobody's safe
Forever after
Forever after
Forever after
Forever after
