Eternal Rains is pretty top-tier in general to be fair

"Eternal Rains is pretty top-tier in general to be fair"



Yet another super ultra truth.



I'm not too much of a lyrics person so I wouldn't know haha!

Have fun:



Eternal rains will come

We should say goodbye

And suffer on our own

As all our thoughts were wrong

So hard to keep the darkness from seeping through

And when the flood comes to drown us

There is nothing we can do

You told me not to wait

Unless I could wait forever

There is nothing we can do

Here it comes, our death comes

Oh my, that certainly is a little... adolescent 'deep' poetry about feels?



EDIT: Exactly! That's what I meant before you snipe-commented!

I'm one of those dudes that still thinks everything written in English is ok.

They're functional imo, he isn't exactly new to that stuff lol. Besides, it's all about them sweet vox atop of the juicy drumz

> I'm one of those dudes that still thinks everything written in English is ok.



Pretty much, though I'm also one of those dudes who thinks song lyrics and poetry don't have to be the same. I strongly think that the two opening lines on Eternal Rains... are perfect for a song.

The lyrics I detest are Elysian Woes



What is left when the morning comes

Is the memory of a future (...ughhhhhh)

And when my plight is done

There is nothing left to hold onto



There were friends waiting at my door

They are gone now, for the year is new

I stuck by my word

And when the rains came

Made it true and pure, to dissolve the hurt

Yeah I imagine the Opeth discog can be a gallery of horrors if oops-i-feel-like-shit lyrics are your particular turn-off haha

At times the
Dark's fading slowly
But it never sustains
[...]
Summer is miles and miles away
And no one would ask me to stay

I actually find interesting Porcelain Heart's lyrics, some parts of it, at least (''I wrote down a name - and read it twice'' paints a very strange picture of numbness in my head)
