Lyrics
Let me taste
Let me feel
I need to know what you keep inside
No need to speak
Just let it be
Carry out this wish for me let nothing interfere
Rise to submission
I'm still beneath in the soil
Discard your clothes
Let loose you hair
We're intertwined forever and have always been
Say the word
And I'll depart
Upon your lips dwells nothing but the meaning of my cause
And so comes the dark
Vibrant as ever before
Flowers already withered
In this endless winter of souls
Outside in the park
The days move along
And nothing ever changes
They have nothing on us
And we've always knew
That nothing ever changes
Rise to submission
I'm still beneath in the soil
This is ours alone
Feeding of the warmth
Lured out from inside
Depending on the life blood
Silently
Whispering
Move in me and set me free
"Htaed otni yaw eht dael
Won resolc
Peels rof gnol
Gnivael dna
Yawa gnidaf
Tuohtiw Od Nac I Tahw
Em Gniwohs
Thgil Laerehte
Raeppasid Dna
Edaf Sruoloc
Ecnart Gnihtoos"

[@defibrilatorr]

5:04 Progressive waltz metal xd

[@goinham9469]

This song is about a demon possessing someone. He uses different tones in his voice to depict the demon, the narrator and the person being possessed. First part with the distorted growls (the demon lurking as if he was underneath), clean growls (as if the demon was on top persuading). The guitar solos that follow is the person being submitted/possesed. First aggressive solo (like fighting it) then more growls (the demon) convincing/persuading). Then light keyboard and soft part comes in as a feeling of being overcome and submitted by the demon and the clean vocals is the narrator depicting the scene of conversion. Then the aggressive nature of the demon takes completely over. *insert headbanging here* .....and then..... "Aaaaaaaaah" "Silently" "Aaaaaaaaaaah" "Whispering" "Aaaaaaaaah" "Move in me and set me free".. Is the final submission/total possession. Then the rest of the song "is it over??" is the feeling of being set free of the pain. First its silence, then echoes. I get a feeling of weightlessness from it as if I where a ghost that doesnt feel pain. :) Opeth is all about imagination and feeling. They're stories. Adventures. Picture yourself in the song and maybe you'll feel the music inside you....

[@MegaLotusEater]

Opeth songs arent about anything. The lyrics are 'black metal nonsense' to quote Mikael

[@alejandrooviedo329]

@@MegaLotusEater I guess that is why they have several concept albums. Sure.

[@carlosdegraciaacuna2375]

@@MegaLotusEater when he said that he was talking about Orchid

[@MegaLotusEater]

@@carlosdegraciaacuna2375 The same applies to all their albums. I mean, what's Blackwater Park about? Or Harlequin Forest? Or Moonlight Vertigo? If you can provide a coherent meaning for any one of their songs, I'll be be impressed. I should clarify: I love Opeth. They're my favourite band in fact. But let's not pretend lyrics are Mikael's strong suit. He's admitted he's not very good at lyrics and writes them as an afterthought.

[@elitac.1953]

claro por que todo es nada y nada tambien importa eso es lo que los diferencia sin embargo la música cuenta en nuestras vidas..

[@bennoble2068]

What I like about this is that Opeth have a massive pair of testes. Something thats lacking in the universe today.

[@chim-choo-ree]

Opeth: five men, two balls

[@jasonashley9853]

I mean. It's simple really. Their music is just 120% metal. The fucking riffs. Mikael's demonic ass sounding growls. The drumming. The energy. Their metal Era is fucking fantastic.

[@Aaron_Gentry]

And to think that Mikael once referred to this as the worst Opeth song when it's anything but

[@azathoth0820]

That's because they have mellowed out in their last 6 or 7 albums. They're lacking the intensity of albums like this one.

[@toprak3479]

THX 1138 I'm not sure if that's relevant

[@flatterswhite]

This is my least favourite Opeth song tbh. I'm still headbanging to it though, just goes to show how incredible they are

[@dragonmasterlance123]

Its basically filler, yet still manages to be over 10 minutes long and yet never drags or feels unwarranted.

[@idontnotdothings2193]

​@@azathoth0820 He said in 2005 that he wasn't fully satisfied with this song, & called the arrangement in the last few minutes "bad". kzbin.info/www/bejne/opOco2esjdasn5Y at 4:08-5:56 Then again, the song was first played live in 2016, so maybe he's opened up to it despite their albums being "mellowed out" by then. www.setlist.fm/stats/songs/opeth-63d682c3.html?song=By+the+Pain+I+See+in+Others

@@gojiralives3698 On their old website.
