*****Lyrics*****

Into the trees
Past meadow grounds
And further away from my home
Baying behind me
I hear the hounds
Flock's chasing to find me alone

A trail of sickness
Leading to me
If I am haunted
Then you will see

Searching the darkness
And emptiness
I'm hiding away from the sun
Will never rest
Will never be at ease
All my matter's expired so I run

A trail of sickness
Leading to me
If I am haunted
Then you will see

There falls another
Vapour hands released the blade
Insane regrets at the drop
Instruments of death before me

Lose all to save a little
At your peril it's justified
And dismiss your demons
As death becomes a jest
You are the laughing stock
Of the absinthe-minded
Confession stuck in your mouth
And long-gone fevers reappear

Nocturnally helpless
And weak in the light
Depending on a prayer
Pacing deserted roads to find
A seed of hope

They are the trees
Rotten pulp inside and never well
Roots are sucking, thieving from my source
Tired boughs reaching for the light

It is all false pretension
Harlequin forest
Awaiting redemption for a lifetime
As they die alone
With no one by their side
Are they forgiven?

Stark determination
Poisoning the soul
Unfettered beast inside
Claiming sovereign control

And now the woods are burning
Tearing life-crops asunder
Useless blackened remains
Still pyre smoldering

Thumbs up if by listening to opeth and other metal bands has given you a soul. And by that I mean without Opeth you would still be just another brick in the wall of artless, meaningless pop music

9:29-9:58

And now the woods are burning

Tearing life crops asunder

Useless blackened remains

Still pyre smoldering

What a fucking amazing part \m/

@mrdeathamore whats funny is mikeal doesn't believe an of his lyrics are good he doesn't give himself the ol pat on the back the man is a genius and being so hard on himself is probably what leads to such masterpieces

My son turned me onto this song and then Opeth in Houston. I don't think he wants to kill me (response to prior sorry ass lament from the pit of hell) ....

I love the power .... Emerson Lake and Palmer voice up front, with YES and TULL musical dramas and the current-era METAL of metalica or Demon Hunter!! Awesome. (Dude, get some respect for your father ... you could not enjoy Opeth without him .... ) PEACE PEACE OF JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH !!!

@mewantsmash I have genres of other musicians to fall back on but Opeth is certainly the most influential band I have listened to. Almost like this music makes you a seer of some sort or something like that.

Why did you cut the final of this music?

[DrToker82]

Opeth gave me the courage to kill my father - Thanks Opeth

@mewantsmash Thumbs up if this comment meant shit all ha ha. you still ARE just "another brick in the wall" and ALWAYS will be. you dont need to listen to opeth to find a "soul", that should come naturaly. you certainly dont need them to realise pop is.... not meaningless but just plain un-original brainwashing shite most of this mouth breathing generation fall for.you listen to opeth for pure plessure, and to admire their genius song writing skills xxxx

[MultiBoten]

Im totaly addicted to this awsome song! Euphoria !
