      I still dont know what it meant to him when he wrote it but ever since i heard it first, it means a lot to me. I dont really listen to Opeth anymore but I listen to this song and I play it with my acoustic.
      It's like cry-porn, idk how to explain it and i definitely wouldn't talk to someone in person about it since im a man not supposed to cry
      Very good song tho, wish it wasnt on a concept album so it made more sense on its own but idk maybe thatd ruin it

    Come into this night
    Here we´ll be gone
    So far away
    From our weak and crumbling lives
    Come into this night
    When days are done
    Lost and astray
    In what´s vanished from your eyes
    What came and distorted your sight
    Saw you benighted by your fright
    Come into this night
    Your plight alone
    Carry your weight
    You are flawed as all of us
    Come into this night
    You only home
    It´s never too late
    To repent, suffer the loss
    Come into this night
    When you´re able
    To undo your deeds
    And atone with your lonely soul
    Once you´re into this night
    All minds are stable
    Forget all your needs
    Lose the grip of all control

    I totally agree with him.. Nick Drake is one of the most underrated singer songwriters of the last 30 or 40 years. This song feels like a nick drake song with an opeth take on it. Absolute genius from both artists regardless

All people should be allowed in to view its beauty or see the entertainment on offer, they shouldn’t have to betray their convictions to do so. Wait! Are atheists not allowed in churches?
