Lyrics
Please remedy my confusion
And thrust me back to the day
The silence of your seclusion
Brings night into all you say
Pull me down again
And guide me into pain
I'm counting nocturnal hours
Drowned visions in haunted sleep
Faint flickering of your powers
Leaks out to show what you keep
Pull me down again
And guide me into
There is failure inside
This test I can't persist
Kept back by the enigma
No criterias demanded here
Deadly patterns made my wreath
Prosperous in your ways
Pale ghost in the corner
Pouring a caress on your shoulder
Puzzled by shrewd innocence
Runs a thick tide beneath
Ushered into inner graves
Nails bleeding from the struggle
It is the end for the weak at heart
Always the same
A lullaby for the ones who've lost all
Reeling inside
My gleaming eye in your necklace reflects
Stare of primal regrets
You turn your back and you walk away
Never again
Spiralling to the ground below
Like Autumn leaves left in the wake to fade
away
Waking up to your sound again
And lapse into the ways of misery

    "They might be a few people who never heard this side of opeth before, but this is really what we sound like" :'(
  • @arvindmega
    This is the best version Opeth ever had. Lopez was such a beast.
  • @djsavagevs6732
    The more and more I listen to Opeth the more I rate this band probably best Metal band around...
  • @arvindmega
    If you don’t know that this was the best Opeth lineup, you don’t know Opeth.
  • Me and my friends saw em back in 2002.. we paid 19 bucks to see them and devildriver.. drove 2 hours. they were touring blackwater park album.. we were stoned out of our minds... One of the best shows Ive seen still....

    While I'm not even remotely disappointed in how Opeth as turned out, I do agree that this is pure Opeth right here.

    I can't believe some guy at Sputnikmusic said this song (and 2 other songs from BP) were "boring to the point of tears"!! To me this, Bleak and Blackwater Park are my favorite songs out of the album. All the atmosphere, the ambience in those songs are just amazing. Breathtaking even! But that's my opinion. BP will remain to many (if not all) Opeth fans the greatest album the band ever released! And to know that Steven Wilson had something to do with that, makes me like it even more. That man definitely knows what he does. Amazing work! Would've been nice to hear him singing like he did in the album though :)

    Blackwater Park will forever be the album that would be the gold standard for Prog Death Metal. The Drapery Falls, Harvest and Blackwater Park will be in my list of the best from the LP (tho no note nor lyric got wasted on that magnum opus of an album)!
  • @Brennan009
    the level of skill within each member of the band is incredible
  • @Daddy53751
    I’ve always been stunned at how much more than metal Opeth is.🤯
  • @monou
    Best live performance, best formation, prime age, top notch!. Back when we don't have barely a decent internet and I watched this DVD a million times. Time flies! Miss the good old days!

    MARTIN LOPEZ, A FUCKING BEAST ON THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!
