Filosofi Singkat
Lagu ini adalah renungan mendalam tentang kehidupan, jiwa, dan kematian. Melalui liriknya, Dream Theater menyampaikan keyakinan bahwa jiwa kita terus ada setelah kita tiada — bahwa kematian bukanlah akhir, melainkan transisi ke sesuatu yang lebih besar. dreamtheater.fandom.com
Secara filosofis, “The Spirit Carries On” mengajarkan bahwa ketidakpastian hidup dan kematian seharusnya tidak menakutkan. Dengan iman dan penerimaan, kita bisa berdamai dengan nasib, percaya bahwa semangat (spirit) kita akan terus berlanjut, bahkan ketika tubuh ini telah pergi.
