Bleak Lyrics

Performed by Opeth
Review The Song (10)

Beating
Heart still beating for the cause
Feeding
Soul still feeding from the loss
Aching
Limbs are aching from the rush
Fading
You are fading from my sight

Break of morning, coldness lingers on
Shroud me into nightmares of the sun

Moving
I am moving closer to your side
Luring
You are luring me into the night
Crying
Who is crying for you here
Dying
I am dying fast inside your tears

Plunging towards bereavement faster yet
Clearing thoughts, my mind is set

Devious movements in your eyes
Moved me from relief
Breath comes out white clouds with your lies
And filters through me
You're close to the final word
You're staring right past me in dismay
A liquid seeps from your chest
And drains me away
Mist ripples round your thin white neck
And draws me a line
Cold fingers mark this dying wreck
This moment is mine

Help me cure you
Atone for all you've done
Help me leave you
As all the days are gone

Devious movements in your eyes
Moved me from relief
Breath comes out white clouds with your lies
And filters through me
You're close to the final word
You're staring right past me in dismay
A liquid seeps from your chest
And drains me away
Mist ripples round your thin white neck
And draws me a line
Cold fingers mark this dying wreck
This moment is mine
Night falls again
Taking what's left of me

Slight twist, shivering corpse
Ornated with water, fills the cracks
Clasped in my limbs by tradition
This is all you need

Opeth at their best | Reviewer: RedDevil | 5/13/12

This is my favourite song song from all of Opeth's albums...The song has a ferocious mood to it... But at the same time the human emotions come to life..... The switch to clean vocals was amazing and the mood of the song is brilliant. Poetically, its amazingly written... I especially love the ending of the song.. Ruthless!

This is surely music at its very best! And no one does it better than Opeth!

It didn't work the first time, but after I dbloue checked it, I realized I was missing a );Ande, you might want to try again checking the code it works awesome for me and it's really worth it.Many thanks!

Awesome | Reviewer: James | 2/12/12

Definitely one of my favourite Opeth songs , and favourite songs in general. Especially the clean vocals at "Devious Movements in your Eyes" that whole stanza is just perfect singing to me. It's also my favourite song to play on guitar, that main heavy riff is just so epic. Didn't get to see Opeth in December cause i was 17 , but next time i'll be at the front , i'll be sure of it =P

AWESOME SONG | Reviewer: dirtydave | 2/7/11

had this song on a tape i made from a metal show here is australia called "the three hours of power" now called "the racket" on triple j had it in my car for a few years never knew who it was then came across it on a random cd buy at the local record shop and never have looked back one of the greatest metal songs of all time. takes me back to the days of getting wasted and listening to metal love this song

Bleak | Reviewer: Fairy | 10/4/09

I think it is one of the greatest opeth song and one of the best songs in BWP in particular, It's not my favorite album but this song spesifically really got me into opeth I love the way Mikael changes from shouting to singing clean he is so good I can't wait to see them perform here :)

Love? | Reviewer: Scott | 7/9/09

My friend had gotten me into Opeth. We used to listen to it while we blazed. One day i bought BWP and i sat down and for one reason or another i turned on this song first and ever since then i have fallen in love with this song. I listen to it every day. Since then i also have purchased all of opeths albums...all i can say is that this is my favorite band ever.

Opeth at they're best | Reviewer: Hayden | 3/25/09

This is the song I show people when the ask me about excellence. Bleak has everything a metal fan would need, and more. This song was my favorite, even before I read the lyrics. I would recommend this to everyone and anyone

Amazing Stuff | Reviewer: Superjam | 1/19/09

If you have never listened to Opeth this is the song that sums up what they do best,Brutal, Melodic,Emotive,Heavy,Acoustic,you name it.There is so much going on in this song it is a breathtaking listen from a truely unique band. Amazing!!!!

Epic | Reviewer: James | 11/23/07

Title sums it up in about one word.
This song is just epic, I agree with the post above if you enjoyed Damnation, or Still Life you will no doubt enjoy this track. The vocals in this track are amazing.

My favorite song on Blackwater Park | Reviewer: Japples | 2/14/05

This is by far my favorite song on the BWP album. It follows in suit to their latest release of Deliverance which the album cover is my favorite opeth track to date. If you haven't listened to either, I highly recommend it even if you are not into metal. Also, for those who enjoy melody Damnation would be an excellent choice to take interest in by this talented band.
