    Lyrics
    Blank face in the windowpane
    Made clear in seconds of light
    Disappears and returns again
    Counting hours, searchingthe night
    Might be waiting for someone
    Might be there for us to see
    Might be in need of talking
    Might be staring directly at me
    Inside plays a lullaby
    Slurred voice over children cries
    On the inside
    Haunting loneliness in the eye
    Skin covering a secret scar
    His hand is waving a goodbye
    There's no response or action returned
    There is deep prejudice in me
    Outshines all reason inside
    Given dreams all ridden with pain
    And projected unto the last

If you like it, check out the albums Deadwing, Fear Of A Blank Planet, In Absentia, The Incident and Stupid Dream. Really great stuff!! Steven Wilson (head of Porcupine Tree) even remastered the Deliverance/Damnation albums together with Mikael Ackerfeldt (head of Opeth in case you didnt know ;) ).

    Their stuff is light, poignant, sad, heavy, dark, intense, even a bit twisted but there is always an element of beauty. That solo stuff from 4:37 fwd, gets me choked up. Mikael Akerfeldt is a master songwriter, great guitarist, singer, extraordinary talent that comes along once in a lifetime.

    When I first heard Damnation was a soft album I was like "lol that's kinda lame".
    When I actually heard the album for the first time I realized that it wasn't a soft album technically. Like, it's soft sound wise, but the overall feel of it is just oppressively, but it's lyrically their heaviest. Like, it's the musical equivalent of a dying old man reflecting on his failures. This album alone made me love Opeth more than I already did.

    Lyrics: "Windowpane"
    Blank face in the windowpane
    Made clear in seconds of light
    Disappears and returns again
    Counting hours, searching the night
    Might be waiting for someone
    Might be there for us to see
    Might be in need of talking
    Might be staring directly at me
    Inside plays a lullaby
    Slurred voice over children cries
    On the inside
    Haunting loneliness in the eye
    Skin covering a secret scar
    His hand is waving a goodbye
    There's no response or action returned
    There is deep prejudice in me
    Outshines all reason inside
    Given dreams all ridden with pain
    And projected unto the last

    I bought this album 15 years ago, alongside Blackwater Park on a suggestion from a friend as I was getting into metal.
    I could not have been any more fortunate at the time than to find this band. I cried and laughed to this album for no particular reason, the sound took the drivers seat, and I was just strung along with the absolute beauty of the compositions.
    Thanks, Opeth.

    this song kidnaps my soul away from my body and into an infinite space where nothing but emotion exist. No logic, No thinking, Just feeling. First time i listened to this song was 2010, never had a device since then where it wasn't downloaded. This isn't a song, It's a drug. Everything is so perfectly crafted, The instruments clash with each other with so much unison and coordination, and the voice of Mikael Åkerfeldt is so soothing and powerful at the same time, i can feel the words he is saying, and they're only heightened by the angelic melancholy of this beautiful symphony.
    It is a shame. This song, it's quality. It feels like serious injustice that only a few millions have heard this song, It should be held at the same regard that genius musicians are. I will never stop listening to this song, it has captured my heart, and i feel it will only release it after another masterpiece like this comes out. So far, none have made my ears tear up like this song has. Thank You Opeth, This song may not be popular, but know that the people that listen to it, have nothing less than love and appreciation for this masterpiece.

      @@ronkozlowski8169 Why do we have to lumped with the Gump? Live can come fast and hard, sometimes taking anyone of us off our game. This has been a back pocket album for me as well, but it's almost like hearing it again for the first time It's nearly as delicious now as when I bought the album 16 years ago. I'm so good with that. Reminds me, and wait for this, an album named Journey. Pre Steve Perry, when Neal Shon and Greg Rolie ran the band. They both came from Santana, not exactly a band of slouches in the early 70's. Sadly, they hired a, I don't want to be rude, but a chick pleaser to front the band. What happened to this album is exactly what happened to the following band for me.
      Nazareth's Loud and Proud, an unbelievable album that for some unknown reason, went out of production for many years. I'd moved on from vinyl during the early 90's and I know, it was a huge mistake, But you could no longer buy it during that era. It contains the most amazing version of Bob Dylan's The Ballad of Hollis Brown, one of those super heavy bass driven tunes that make you try to destroy your car speakers. I'd never forgotten that one because I remembered I sold the record for around $65 after I left my last turntable behind, oh, that was pure regret. Most of my music had a copy of a cassette tape (You might have to look that up, I wouldn't know) but that isn't one of them and I missed it hard until a few years ago.
      Anyhow, I'm glad I've been reminded of this, I'm sure there are many more albums I've forgotten about in my nearly 57 years. Someday, you get here too. You may not believe it's possible, but brother let me tell you, it's gonna get you wether you believe it or not. It's not a senior moment either, it's just life. If you've dealt with the shit that came at me, losing my father when he was 52, Mother shortly after, 2 divorces before I was 25 and numerous long term relationships till I found the right one 25 years ago, and her pain in the ass parents, living out of my car for more than a year in Buffalo, NY (winter sucked hard twice) because shit got BRUTAL due to my job being sent overseas several times and the death of my only child, it can be quite distracting when it comes to music.
      This wasn't a top 10 band to me, but easily a top 25 to 30, and I consider my top 100 to be amazing. You just simply lose track some times.I truly hope none of the things that distracted me happen to you, that'd be fantastic, but rest assured, I didn't mention all that life had in store, not even close. But we perceiver and simply hope we don't forget about our favorite tunes. Be well Ron and rock on.

    I remember reading an interview with Mikael where he mentioned the lyrical inspiration for this song.
    He was out partying with some friends one night, and on the way home at like 3 AM he happened to see an old man looking out from a window. Nothing else happened, but he started to imagine what that man's life might be like and wrote these lyrics. It's basically about loneliness and the many (often older) people society forgets about.

    Before Opeth I could not listen growling metal one bit. This kind of using of perfect harmonies with mixture of different kinds of emotions in music really caught me. And yes this album and this song was crucial for me to getting used to the band's style and then moving on to Blackwater park and Ghost reveries which became even a bigger favorite for me than this album. What a band, none other is good at this level of progressive metal which is not just bout rhytm but really getting the amount of depth to a one song.
