A f*cking anthem

Opeth happens to be one of my favourite bands.... ever... No matter how long ago I heard this song, I still get that feeling when I listen to it. To display the pure vocal awesomeness I chose a live recording of the song.

P.S. Yes, there are growling vocals... push through the first 3 minutes of the song.. although I don't suggest that you do that.

Lyrics follow.


Beating; Heart still beating for the cause
Feeding; Soul still feeding from the loss
Aching; Limbs are aching from the rush
Fading; You are fading from my sight

Break of morning, coldness lingers on
Shroud me into nightmares of the sun

Moving; I am moving closer to your side
Luring; You are luring me into the night
Crying; Who is crying for you here
Dying; I am dying fast inside your tears

Plunging towards bereavement faster yet
Clearing thoughts, my mind is set

Devious movements in your eyes
Moved me from relief

Breath comes out white clouds with your lies
And filters through me

You're close to the final word
You're staring right past me in dismay
A liquid seeps from your chest
And drains me away

Mist ripples round your thin white neck
And draws me a line
Cold fingers mark this dying wreck

This moment is mine
Help me cure you
Atone for all you've done
Help me leave you
As all the days are gone

Night fall again
Taking what's left of me
Slight twist, shivering corpse

Ornated with water, fills the cracks
Clasped in my limbs by tradition
This is all you need
