Lyrics
Lost, here is nowhere
Searching home still
Turning past me, all are gone
Time is now
The omen showed, took me away
Preparations are done, this can't last
The mere reflection brought disgust
No ordeal to conquer, this firm slit
It sheds upon the floor, dripping into a pool
Grant me sleep, take me under
Like the wings of a dove, folding around
I fade into this tender care
this is the song i show to anyone who says metal is just noise or doesn’t have any beauty
@♡ Fluffy ♡ a7x is the definition of metal beauty
@@circumcizednun1814 most of their discography is metalcore lmao. They sound like metal version of mainstream country music
@@Moskalineludy Theyre still a good band and easier to get into than opeth. I show opeth to metalheads and even they rarely like it, cant really see a non metalhead being blown away by them.
But that's the thing: certain parts of this hardly fit into the category of Metal, which is the music that SOME people don't enjoy
no, you don't show them anything, you nod, agree and then make sure you never talk to them again
The growls don't sound angry or monstrous,they sound sad,full of angst,as if they were using Mikael's last strength
The darkest Opeth song by far. Yes, maybe simple, no complex like rest of the discography, but this is the darkest Opeth song ever. Even in summer, under the fireball sun, this song freezes me.
This song reminds me of death and how limited my time is.
Not really getting "cold" vibes from this song. It is pretty emotionally loaded though, that's for sure.
Songs from Still Life are way darker really
How is this song simple
Sun isn't a fireball it's nuclear fusion but yeah 😝
Wow dude you are looking the same like Martin Lopez
This is probably my most favorite song ever. Words can hardly describe the emotions it invokes in my mind. The sadness and beauty it encapsulates are just... Wow. When I read Berserk, I used to listen to this song on repeat; the level of sadness and the urge to die is what I imagined Guts must be feeling at all times.
I see you're a man of culture
Griffisu!
These earlier opeth songs should be in a Berserk anime remake it would fit so good with certain parts i swear.
November is a pivotal month for me. And December. I lost a lot of people,. My whole family and one best friend.
This is my dirge. I lived it.
Hope you're well, cheers
Hope youre ok ❤
Hope you doing good bro
Sad to here it bro. November is the month I was born, so its kinda happy month for me. Still a lot of bad incidents happened on November such as terrorist attacks.
That outro is haunting
Dayum right
For me it's more saddening, like hauntingly sad 😳😔
And 🔥🔥🔥
It's haunting but beautiful at the same time.
Best part
The intro is a somber malaise, the verses are a deep emotional meltdown, the outro is the exhaustion
I don’t know why, but the line, “Grant me sleep, take me under,” Haunts me every time I hear it.
Can you hear the high pitched screeches?
Whoever listens to Opeth, I would help you at your lowest in an instant. You are valued, you are family who I've mostly never met.
Thanks man
You are an incredible person! ❤
Same here ❤
cheers brother 🍺
Lost, here is nowhere
Searching home still
Turning past me, all are gone
Time is now
The omen showed, took me away
Preparations are done, this can't last
The mere reflection brought disgust
No ordeal to conquer, this firm slit
It sheds upon the floor, dripping into a pool
Grant me sleep, take me under
Like the wings of a dove, folding around
I fade into this tender care
The most beautiful song ever recorded.
true,if not the very best,then certainly one of them....!
listen to The Last Milestone by Leprous.
@@jod_hates_it_here6895 ur mother hates you
It describes the last peaceful-like moments of someone’s life of loneliness, suffering and self hate as they commit suicide. A lost soul that became convinced that it was his/her fate; “The Omen showed, took me away.” Frontman Mikael Åkerfeldt has even mentioned himself that this track is about suicide and has also noted that it's actually his favorite from the record Blackwater Park, saying "it's just so dark and simple."
Damn.
I can relate to this
The atmosphere of Opeth has still never been topped
They reached the pinnacle !
I've listened to Opeth non stop for over 15 years, but there's something just different about this song that draws me back. It's so dark and beautiful at the same time, definitely one of their best songs!
"There's something just different about this song"
It's the power of black metal.
It feels very repetitive. It has a certain charm no other opeth song has imo. Very dark and also 2 of the best acoustic sections.
I been listening to pretty much exclusively Opeth for 3 years, and I thought if I would ever get sick of them. Your comment gives me hope that I will not, and of course, how could I ever get sick of such an amazing band?
Every Opeth song is one of their best songs
@@Masher2025 No Black Metal!
The section from 2:43 to 3:28 has got to be one of the most beautiful and heart-wrenching stanzas of music I've heard. It portrays such an incredible sadness while being in theory such a simple riff. These guys are the best at what they do
nailed it!
and that bassline, killer!
who would think to parse chords and leads in such a soul destroying way
Its a simple riff but there are layers of guitars creating a sort of orchestra there....the overall sound is incredible and classic, like something Beethoven could have done.
Couldn't agree more. Eargasm at its finest.
Steven Wilson was on point with the production of this brilliant album.
This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. It perfectly captures the act of suicide, it's aftermath and depression leading to it.
First three minutes describe the feeling of meloncholy, loss of hope and utter sadness. The riffs from 2 to 3 minutes are just beautiful sounds like a crying being.
The second part is where the hateful and resentful part takes over where the only option is to eliminate the source of tension.
3rd to 4th minute is his hate and contemplation on preparation to kill himself.
The transition around 4:30 and upbeat change is the act of suicide till 5:45 where he finally finds solace.
The abrubt change ends with a utter sadness around him.
Wow
This guy gets it^
I love this comment 🖤
Is this song about suicide?
@@capsulecorp6975 It most probably is.
I feel like when I get old I'll listen to nothing else other than Opeth, and when something new comes by, I'll grumpily say "Opeth makes it much better"
I do that now at 28 😅
perfect from beginning to end, just like the rest of Blackwater Park
Yeah so hard to pick my favorite Opeth album but if I had to pick it would probably be Blackwater park.
Blackwater park was pure banger except for the funeral portrait
Bleak is the weakest track on BWP..
@@lukaskuipers7791 The Funeral Portrait is fucking awesome, what are you talking about?
@@JonnyCrackers I'm talking about the funeral portrait easily being the worst track on the album
What kind of tasteless monster dislikes this
A monster called, Mikael, Opeth's Bane, doesn't like this song. He thinks this is the worst Opeth song ever and this makes me kill him. HOW?!?!?!
No one with actual taste likes heavy metal
@@johnvincent1823 Gr8 b8 m8
@@johnvincent1823 no one with actual taste likes music in general
@@johnvincent1823 No one with actual taste writes off an entire genre as bad.
That outro is so haunting yet so soothing and calm. Like it’s trying to be sad but still feels comforting. Reminds me of a very peaceful death.
This to me is the darkest track from Opeth. Understanding what the lyrics are about it haunts me so much everytime I listen to it. Such a masterpiece.
Rest in peace my beloved brother. You will always be in my heart 😔
The song is dark, sad and beautiful all together. The outro is haunting and mesmerizing.
This is one incredibly mournful tune. Could easily be a funeral song.
it's literally called a dirge
Gonna be mine, it's what I would have wanted anyhow.
I wanted to walk down the aisle to this song, but decided not to in the end because it sounded as if I was walking to my doom. Would have been cool though 😌😏
@sirennemesis hahaha. You have great taste tbh. Wouldve been cool af if you did this in your wedding xD
Ahh the song of my depressed youth. I revisit once a year or so.
I am crying, not because this song is very emotional, but because I love Opeth so much.
Opeth is poetry, but with some of the best instrumental you'll ever hear in your entirety of living.
this song is obviously about a suicide experience after a depression. it begins with sadness, and the agitated part represents the preparations for the act, and then the act itself. the end represents the sadness of others because of that
I've felt like the end isn't necessarily the sadness of others, but the laying there draining out, helpless to stop what you've done to yourself. Apathetic helplessness as you fade to black.
I don't know about all that other stuff but it sure as fuck is about suicide.
I interpret the ending as the dark peace of the afterlife
During the last part I imagine a black cloud enveloping around the streets from where he died
@@asloii_1749 Thank you for bringing me back to this comment section so I could remember how cringe my 14 year old self was
Powerful song. The progression of the main riff at 2:43 is one good remarkable moment in Opeth history. I wish, however, that they had put it after "The Funeral Portrait" so that it could be the direct prelude to "Patterns in the Ivy".
Listening to this for the billionith time and still mesmerized. Beautiful. Speaks to me every time.
The ending is my favorite sound in all of Opeth’s work
That beautiful and nostalgic ending, I miss this era of Opeth.
Opeth has very dark and aggressive themes that some people interpret as suicidal but it doesn't feel that way to me. It seems like they talk about the loneliness of independence and turning away from what's empty and rigid. The cost of being real is high. They always find a way to express it masterfully in their music.
intro is the preparation; the person portrayed in the song is ridden with sadness and despair- the melancholy acoustic echoes with this despair and depression. They are lonely and feel there is no other recourse. They have made the choice to end it. The song then breaks into intensity as they are filled with a ragelike trance, blinding them of consequence. The lyrics then portray the obvious narration of it. It is a very profound and profoundly sad song about suicide, a touchy subject that is beautifully portrayed through this instrumentation and vocals. I fade into this tender care is the final thought; a hope for a release from the victim. They lose consciousness and the following melancholy insturmentation portrays that the deed is done, and it is tragic. I always imagine the body on the floor when the final melancholy acoustics play, slowly panning out from the scene of tragedy. So many emotions portrayed here- the loss the victims loved ones will face. etc. Poetry made music.
This is precisely how I've always described this song. Three stages. Contemplation, act, and aftermath.
One of the most beautiful endings I have ever heard. It truely captures the sorrow and vacantness of the departed soul.
Truely a moving piece of music.
Opeth you almost make me cry. What a feeling Mikael puts on it's music
Here we go
amen
This needs to be a song as you slowly go down a roller coaster, while in Six flags.
One of the most ethereal pieces of music the human mind has ever created
Man I love Opeth so much...their songs are so beautiful and amazingly crafted. All their songs sound like they contain about 4 different songs in each one yet meld together perfectly.
The heavy verses are one of my favourite parts of this album, 2 guitars start in Dm one plays power chords tge other plays a different but complemntary run of notes at a different rhythym and the bass drives it along, the result would make a perfect soundtrack for a biblical flood or someother apocalyptic deluge
It's really dark. The last part of the riff sounds like it's gonna resolve but it loops back into the beginning of the riff, which is just tritones. It sounds even darker and more dissonant when you expect a resolution. It's three guitars too, by the way.
This is probably my favourite Opeth song.
Ringing in the first of November 2020 with this gem.
When I listen to this song I like to think that this is the sound of the creation of the universe.
This is one of my favorite songs from opeth
0:45 i love how this is the same note sequence as Drapery Falls.
"Spiraling to the ground below. Like Autumn leaves left to the wake to fade."
So fitting.
WOW! Just wow, I recently discovered Opeth last year i mean i knew of them but i never gave them a listen. Some of the best songs i have ever heard of in my life. Beautiful, Dark, and just pure art!! LOVE IT!!
Opeth is infinite my friend, and cool avi btw ;)
This was the first song I ever played with her. And now... its the song I will always think of her when I hear it. She's never coming back.
I learned this song on an electric guitar while suffering my first breakup. You never forget your first love, you put on different masks for her but she will always be the same, and illusive.
brutal
There are more fish in the sea mates! Keep your spirits up!
my favorite song from blackwater park, the brutal and sad riffs, the progression, the vocals, the lyrics, everything in this song is perfect, the darkest and most beautiful 7 minutes i've ever heard
5:45 That outro. To me it always sounded like the soundtrack to the album cover with the ghostly silhouettes in the dark swamp.
I am back again. What a song. What a band.
Couldn't have said it better @Jerry Boone!
There's good, and then there is art.
This is curing my depression.
I've been feeling like in this song, everday for God knows how long. Can't remember the last time I didn't feel like ending it. Perhaps when I was 15/16 , but don't remember. All I know is that everyday since then I felt like just keeling over and dieing. Loneliness is a huge part of it, but it's so true. We are born alone and will die alone. Even so called 'best friends' are only interested in their own lives.
One of OPETHs MANY MASTERPIECES. THEY ARE ONE OF THE BEST BANDS IN THE WORLD. AND GOJIRA
Over a year late but fucking amen to that! \m/
Detestor 420 add tool to that and i’m with you
Agree with everything you said!
Gojira is not on this level. Mastodon maybe :)
@@lukaskuipers7791 not even Mastodon. Have them learn how to write lyrics and build such haunting melodies, instead of just djenting those guitars like there's no tomorrow, then we can speak.
The part from 2:43 to 5:45 is the Opeth we loved. A hidden gem! Made me literally cry!
yeah, wish they returned to that... cant stand the new stuff, especially using that fucking hammond keyboards everywhere
I'm in love with the final part...that shimmer....
The intro is just.. This was the first Opeth song that I fell in love with, and that intro remains as one of my favorite things from them.
November comes. What a graet tune. Mikael is a genius!
Is this the official Opeth channel with one of the best songs from the album with less than 10k views? Goshhhhhhhh.
I love this lyrics, melody... This song... Goshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhjjjhhh
they uploaded this song very late haha
257K views now
Can't believe how much depth that one note (1:58) adds to the song
This is maybe my all time favorite Opeth song... All i love about Opeth is present in this song.
Old opeth i miss you!!!
@@RottingWays new opeth still has some good songs, but i doubt they'll produce another masterpiece like this.
I like the new Opeth, when you do the same thing over and over (see Iron Maiden) all your songs become a blurr. But when you change it up with still good music but different, it allows classics like this song to be appreciated in its fullest. Its why as a tool fan, I was not crazy about their new album, because it just sounded like a rehash of Lateralus, but a second rate one. They didnt grow at all. 10,000 days was pretty good (although a bit too much filler to make it great) and at least it sounded different from the previous album. Their new album just sounds like nostalgia. With opeth it took me a while to get into Sorceress and Heritage (havent heard pale communion yet, but I have the CD) but once I did I could appreciate it. Are there songs on those albums that sound like experiments that dont work? Sure, but at least they are taking chances. Take The Ward as an example, COMPLETELY different from Blackwater park sound, and certainly not as complex, but its special in its simplicity and puts you in a mood. My point to all of this is growth and change is good, it keeps the passion and doesnt water down previous work.
@@soakedbearrd Actually, seriously the best defence I've heard for their change in sound. Good job.
@@soakedbearrd I agree completely. Plus Michael said he doesnt really listen to death metal anymore. Why would he try to write music he has no wish to. It would be hollow. And yeah not like the numerous albums from the past are going anywhere.. they just grow in value to people like us that love the old sound.
@@soakedbearrd Their new album sucks balls tho
3 in 1. Acoustic part, metal part, instrumental part (+ 2 genres of voices) = perfect song.
This song just ripped me apart in the most beautiful way possible, those riffs just drilled into my bones and tore my heart to pieces. Holy mother of god. Easily one of the best songs I've ever heard. I can't get over how perfect this song is.
I remember traveling to Florida with my band and staying in a hotel. We ventured out explored the city and came across this music shop and I bought two cd’s based on their covers. Black water park. And fair to midland: what I say three times is true….. I stayed up at night in my hotel room sitting near the window sipping ketal one vodka and looking out at the city so alive on a cold crisp night night and listening to this album. This album took me through so many emotions The experience was indescribable. Every time I listen to this album I get transported back in time at the specific moment.
I just can't listen to this song without thinking about To Live Is To Die. What an influence and what a great way to put out that inspiration and have this beautiful outcome.
Mikael said that without to live is to die opeth would never have existed
@@lukaweiss9147best metallica song ever made one of the best metal bands in history, not a surprise
Been listening to Opeth for over 20 years now. Still, everytime when 2:43 comes I get chills down my spine.
Best song on the album for me 🖤
I’m here every November 1st
Nov 1 2024 😂
Oi!
Where you at?
Starting from 2:42 to the opening lyric...just glorious.
The entire intro is ff'ing brutal. Why wait until 2:42? If you ask me, the part before it is even better.
@@donenzonen came back years later to say no doubt, just happens to be my favorite section :)
I am here again. Into the void. When my life doesn't make sense. Closing my eyes and listening Opeth embraces me. Opeth has saved my life countless times. Crying with shivers There is still beauty in this cold, generic, enslaving, unfair and perverse world.
What a gem! Brings tears even after years of listening to it! Tears caused by the song’s shocking beauty and sadness, all at the same time. Anyone feels the same way?
Of course, you're not alone.
This song especially good for listening in November cuz of the name of the song idk why but I always find myself listening to this song in November honestly the entire blackwater park album gives me a fall and winter vibe mainly fall for some reason and idk why but it just does
The part 5:50 and onwards is the definition of my life.
The growls in this are my favorite of all songs on the album
وا على تحفة ميمكنش تكون عادية 🖤
This song contains some of my favourite growls from Mikael.
This album is beautiful and really speaks to my soul.
LSD and Opeth go so well together.
What an amazing group! This is one of the most moving themes I've heard in ages to come! Many thanks for making this available.
When the heavy part starts, it feels like their is a weight on my shoulders pulling me down. On 2:42 i get some strenght to counterweight it, but when the growling is coming, it gets heavier and pulls me down again. It's fantastic! The freaking best Song!
One the most beautiful and soul-crushing songs
I seriousley listened to this song more than 100 times
Never bored
Same. I'm hopelessly stuck on a loop.
I love an awful lot of what Mikael Akerfeldt has created through the years but I wish he agreed with me....Loving Opeth songs like Dirge For November and hoping to see them play it live is like being in love with a person who's parents dont care about them yet care enough to disapprove of you.
I cannot put into words how much this one moves me.
I've seen Opeth 10+ times, I've listened to Blackwater Park more than years I've been alive (a lot). I picked up guitar because of Opeth and of course I picked up a PRS. Out of every show, every listen, every riff I've learned, Dirge For November is the most emotional and gut-wrenching song to this day. I've never seen them perform this live, and that's almost as gut-wrenching. Mike, please please please consider this for rotation.
This song took the longest to grow on me when I first heard this record. But now that I understand Opeths style, going from delicate and light almost ambient music, to face fucking death metal prog, this song has become one of my favorite on the record.
The soaring guitars on this one are just... masterful.
Music I wish I was genius enough to think up. I’m skilled enough to play pretty much every Opeth record on the drums, but thinking this stuff up is something else entirely.
A few jarring moments like the transition at 1:44 made me think at first that this was one of the weaker songs on the record. Took me another listen to realize brilliance of this beautifully depressing song.
The intro immediately grabs you. And that outro is magic. My God.
The ending of this song is so serene.
it's November, my birthday is in three days, today it's raining and i couldn't ride my bike.
and I'm listening to this now
I want this to play at my funeral
Try looking at the moon and listening to this magnificent outro...
Hidden gem

Real opeth fans are rare, it ain’t popular we’ve just had this bitch on repeat for years
perfect song for today
I love listening to the last 2 minute outtro high as hell so soothing
Those opening lines...
Yes, i lived that.
What did that do for me?
I am still working on figuring it all out.
And that outro. 🥀
Magic!
Opeth is the definition of darkness
I can't even describe how beautiful this song is
I'm listening to it for the first time, It's absolutely a masterpiece.
maaaaaaan I been listening to this song for the last 12 years and I’m just now realizing why it’s my favorite… mama really described how I been feeling FOR YEARS
