Myles Kennedy - The Great Beyond Lyrics






Suddenly, the ground gives way
The spirit moves down the hall
Fate reveals the dark remains
Of faith in its last resolve

Left behind those who wait
For answers that will not come
Out of time, out of place
Into the great
The great beyond

In denial, the seed and son
The one who will pay the most
Will revile the one he loves
Too bitter to let this go

Faith in time will decay
This tragedy will live on
Love inside slips away
Into the great
The great beyond

Now all we've seen or thought to be was just a dream
All we've seen or thought to be is gone
All we've seen or thought to be was just a dream
The sky rips open taking all we've ever known away

And the funeral songs welcome the early dawn
One more ghost slips away into the great beyond
As the pyre burns on, the pale rider won't be long
To push open the gates into the great beyond
The great beyond

  66. J.... D....

    Who disliked this?

  67. H.... ....

    Ok. This is Epic.

  68. T.... ....

    Best song on the album. This one could easily work as a heavier AB song!

  69. S.... P....

    Nov 13 Chicago... round 2!! I can't wait to see my man again~

  70. W.... W....

    Vocal of Myles reminds me Bruce Dickinson in this song
    Sounds cool!

  71. A.... C....

    A.... C....

    Alexander Cheong somebody that wanted to be different lol

    Scott Stapp

  72. S.... ....

    I said it on Amsterdam 2006 and I say it now: Myles Kennedy is the best vocalist out there his voice is angelic yet powerful

  73. T.... 5....

    I loved you in rockstar myles

  74. K.... M....

    OMG!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

  75. C.... T....

    Pure class.

  76. B.... ....

    When you add to this song heavy distortion... It turns to a black metal song :)

  77. N.... ....

    Oof i was in that show on the London Palladium, such good memories, Myles it's just another level!

    N.... ....

    NatanTFK I was there too

    N.... ....

    Me too!

  78. L.... S....

    Didn´t even see the video, and added it to my favorites. One of my favorite tracks from the solo album. Myles is maybe the
    most complete rock musician ever (after Paul Mccartney).

  79. D.... S....

    What's the purpose of this montages, especially if it doesn't even contain the song itself? AB had two videos in the same style and they were as pointless as this one. Why? Live video would work better.

    D.... S....

    I remember Cradle to the Grave, what's the other one?

    D.... S....

    Maybe should of done a lyric video to this in the style of a James bond sequence. That's what I vision listening to this song.

    D.... S....

    The Other Side.

    D.... S....

    @Damien Scott yeah you're right, I remember it is the Live audio, with highlights from some of the festival's, and the 02 arena footage they shot but didn't release.

    D.... S....

    Damien Scott-To answer your question, The Other Side was political and The Cradle to the Grave and The Great Beyond sounds more religious. They had said that they are not a religious or political band. When their music sounds too political or religious; they do not play them, live.

  80. H.... ....

    Well Myles how does it feel to be World famous, but keep be true to your soul !

  81. S.... G....

    Only video I can imagine to this song is James Bond credits 15 minutes into a bond movie. Basically what I'm saying is Myles for the next bond theme!!!

    S.... G....

    This sounds more like a bond theme than Sam Smith's half arsed attempt. Hearing this 15 minute into a bond film right after a revolver as been shot.

    S.... G....

    This so needs to be a james bond song .. what a cool idea

    S.... G....

    Fantastic idea..

    S.... G....

    I was thinking the same thing.

    S.... G....

    Billie Eyelash got it, :(

  82. C.... K....

    Love this, Myles is the BEST

  83. M.... B....

    Best song of the album after Love can only heal.

    M.... B....

    1st reaction: Whoah "Love Can Only Heal" is great, 2nd: "Year of the Tiger" is pretty darn good, 3rd: Whoah "Devil on the Wall" is also great, 4th: Wau, "Songbird" is great too, 5th: "The Great Beyond" rocks! 6th: Isn't this whole album just full of frickin' great songs!

    M.... B....

    @Defeqel It is!

  84. n.... o....

    Lmao they release a music video 7 months after the album release

    n.... o....

    They're promoting he's going back on the Year Of The Tiger Tour for abit after having worked with slash this summer/fall. That's why the delay

  85. J.... J....

    The one in only! Myles Kennedy.. his voice!

  86. R.... A....

    Is this The Mayfield four formation?

    R.... A....

    No. Only Myles and Zia are Mayfield Four. The other is Tim Tournier the manager for Alter Bridge, Tremonti and others. Who just happens to be a pretty decent guitarist in his own right. 😊👍🤘

    R.... A....

    I think Tim manages Tremonti too. I may be wrong on that point. If someone else knows definitively and could clarify - that would be great. 😊🤘👍❤

    R.... A....

    @Aileen Lyons Thank you so much, that's answered my question ☺
    Have a nice day 👍🔥

    R.... A....

    @Rodney Arc you are most welcome. 😁🤘

    R.... A....

    @Rodney Arc hope you had a nice day also...sorry forgot that. 😆🙂🤘

  87. P.... N....

    Anybody the lyrics?

    P.... N....

    You can search them on Google. If you have the CD they are in the cover booklet. 😊

    P.... N....

    Thanks :)

    THE GREAT BEYOND LYRICS

    [Verse 1]
    Suddenly, the ground gives way
    The spirit moves down the hall
    Fate reveals the dark remains
    Of faith in its last resolve

    [Chorus]
    Left behind those who wait
    For answers that will not come
    Out of time, out of place
    Into the great
    The great beyond

    [Verse 2]
    In denial, the seed and son
    The one who will pay the most
    Will revile the one he loves
    Too bitter to let this go

    [Chorus]
    Faith in time will decay
    This tragedy will live on
    Love inside slips away
    Into the great
    The great beyond


    [Bridge]
    Now all we've seen or thought to be was just a dream
    All we've seen or thought to be is gone
    All we've seen or thought to be was just a dream
    The sky rips open taking all we've ever known away

    [Outro]
    And the funeral songs welcome the early dawn
    One more ghost slips away into the great beyond
    As the pyre burns on, the pale rider won't be long
    To push open the gates into the great beyond
    The great beyond

  88. S.... S....

    Canta muito !

  89. B.... A....

    God I love this guy

  90. G.... ....

    One of the best things from the other 11. I love YOTT=)

    G.... ....

    Seriously tho! The whole album is a must listen to!

  91. �.... T....

    Now this is more than just good music. This my friend is art at it finest. I will rock this album forever and ever.

  92. W.... M....

    I never used to listen to Alter Bridge. Never have been a fan of them. But, I somehow stumbled upon 'Year of the Tiger' on YouTube a few days ago. Wow!!! What a song! What a voice! Such great lyrics! I instantly fell in love. I subscribed without a delay. Just got the notification a few minutes ago. And, again. Myles Kennedy hits me with everything. Such passion is truly hard to find. His screams resonates with the heart everytime. I don't care if he falls under metal or not. Even though I hardly listen to anything other than extreme metal. I must say, this guy knows how to shake your heart. Time to add this to my favourites playlist. Long live, Myles Kennedy.

    W.... M....

    @Mc Merly absolutely! Its amazing...so blessed to have found them. Wished I had sooner but everything happens for a reason. Found them when I needed them most. 💜🙂🤘

    W.... M....

    @Aileen Lyons the same here 😊 Music is healing ❤

    W.... M....

    @Wanderer Mahmud "I hardly listen to anything other than extreme metal" well shit dude I love death metal too but that right there is your first problem.

    W.... M....

    @Mc Merly this is so very true. I recently found myself in that very situation going to see Myles and Co. In Hartford, CT and ended up meeting some other fans there after. It was really nice! Best family of Fans ever

    W.... M....

    Aileen Lyons Oh yes THAT. I’d recommend that every time.

  93. s.... ....

    Zia and Myles together is magic.

  94. I.... A....

    What an amazing footage to this song!
    We need a video for Turning Stones please, that song is so beautifully written that deserves a video.

  95. M.... C....

    Preciosas tomas! Myles luce tan feliz y entregado en este video. Potente y emotiva voz, toca hermoso la guitarra, se acerca al público, bromea, disfruta, compone. Mucho talento con alma resplandeciente. Y es guapísimo, se ve algo delgado pero muy saludable.

  96. R.... d....

    THE GREAT BEYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOND !!! What Greaaaat Vocal note !!!

  97. L.... ....

    Great footage. Great song from #YOTT. Myles are you going to release a Concert video soon?

  98. N.... I....

    That voice 😍

  99. B.... S....

    Woah wow

  100. A.... P....

    Dear Myles Kennedy:
    I FUCKIN LOVE YOU MY DEAR SIR.
    Thank you.
