    In the name of desperation
    I call your name
    A lamentation I sigh
    Again and again
    Spiritual eclipse
    The gateways are closed for me to seek
    The night...
    A veil of stars, watching
    My shadow is born from light
    The light of the eye, in darkness
    Over troubled waters memories soar
    Endlessly searching night and day
    The moonlight caresses a lonely hill
    With the calmness of a whisper
    I wear a naked soul
    A blank face in the streaming water
    It is cold in here
    Frost scar my coat with dust
    Eyes attach to your mute portrait
    We spoke only through thoughts
    Together we gazed, awaited
    Hours brought thirst and the rising sun
    Sunbirds leave their dark recesses
    Shadows glid the archways
    Do not turn your face towards me
    Confronting me with my loneliness
    You are in a forest unknown
    The secret orchard
    And your voice is vast and achromatic
    But still so precious
    Lullaby of the crescent moon took you
    Mesmerized its kaleidoscopic face
    Granted you a hollow stare
    Another soul within the divine herd
    I have kept it
    The awakenth symbol
    Hidden inside the golden shrine
    Until we rejoice in the meadow
    Of the end
    When we both walk the shadows
    It will set ablaze and vanish
    Black rose immortalI
    It's getting dark again
    Dusk shuffles across the fields
    The evening trees moan as if they knew
    At night I always dream of you

The ending of the song is super creepy too as I think that last scream and riff is him realizing what he has done how he sold his soul to the devil and once he dies he'll never see his loved one again.

    I used to absolutely despise black and death metal. That all changed when I heard this song by Opeth. I had already heard Harvest and Benighted, but this song was what pulled me into the genre. Thank you, Opeth, for showing me that black and death metal could be just as good as other genres

      For me the two bands that got me into "extreme metal" were Death and Opeth. That was about 3 years ago, and for the past year Ive been on an Opeth journey and have all their albums. They took me out of my heavy metal/thrash journey and into something more filling.

      @metalswifty23 Před 2 lety +3

      Just isn't melodic death metal, though, nor did that genre ever have black metal influences.
      Opeth were a progressive death metal band, who had some black metal influences early on, but they certainly weren't melodeath.
      I have no idea why people are suddenly confusing genres now, as you're not the first person I've seen say this lately. Just because there is melody in a death metal-based band, that doesn't automatically mean they're melodeath.
      The melody in Opeth and the melody in the melodeath genre are 2 very different, very distinct things.
      Opeth's melody is largely around the acoustic arrangements, with their electric guitar work either being very abrasive, or proggy. Melodeath, on the other hand, has its melody firmly rooted in the electric guitar, almost universally to do with the riffs that they borrowed from NWOBHM, which they then sped up. Again, they're 2 very, _very_ different things.
      Listen to Heartwork-era and modern Carcass, At the Gates, and Dark Tranquillity, and then listen to Opeth, then you'll see the drastic differences between the 2. Opeth aren't even your typical progressive death metal band either, not really. They had their own distinct sound within the genre, but the genre itself was usually stuff like late 90's Death, mid 90's Cynic, Atheist etc.

      100% agreed. There are other sides of Metal, on its variations, to what meets the ear. It's not all about the "Screaming", rathar in what lies underneath it. As much as I love Marduk, for example, it is good to see more and more Metal Bands mixing Melodic Art in their songs. It allows diehard naysayers of Metal, to open up to the possibility that this kind of music has more than meets the ear. I' personally, am in love with this kind of music to the point where the mere sound of the growling gets me, no need for words. But people have prejudices of everything. Many of them hear it and immediately turn themselves off, not allowing themselves to fully understand the nature of Metal. It is just heart - breaking how much this kind of music is underrated, not to say "banned" and "forbbiden"
