Opeth - Still Day Beneath The Sun Lyrics
There is a light that hits the gloom around
Shows the footprints round this grave
Dried up roses scattered on the mound
Honouring the one engraved
Carry away
The souls of those for whom we cry
Leaving, grieving
Seeking, meeting
Binding, unwinding
Sighing "You"
Black procession through the narrow aisles
Another's gone for all to see
Sleeping neath the ground is me
Still day beneath the sun
Asking you who is the one
And when the day is late
We know who must forever wait

Opeth Still Day Beneath The Sun Comments
Hauntingly beautiful.
i'm crying god
Sighing... You...
I hope i can play acoustic guitar this well someday. these riffs are on another level
Incredible
Someone in India is playing this song right now while gazing through the devastating smog caused by bursting Diwali crackers.
I'd totally buy a full album of songs like this one and Patterns In The Ivy II.
Just Mikael voice and two guitars
Mikael is GOD !
The Best Album Ever made !
Magnificent
Gives me chills every time.
I’ll never understand why these guys aren’t household names.
Becuz growls n metal n stuff
They kinda are though, as far as metal goes. They're freaking huge
People who know what great songwriting truly is know Opeth, and hold them in the highest of regards.
this is the beauty of simple, nice and calm songs <3 opeth i fucking love you
This is on Blackwater Park?
Not on the original record, it's a bonus track. Even if I really like it, it wouldn't have fit the record, imo. Same thing for Patterns in the Ivy 2
TheAskald It works best as a standalone track, I think.
underrated song. beautiful
everything about this song is a maaterpiece piece. cant get it out of my head!
And when the day is late, I take the time to masterbate
This song is not on iTunes for some reason but it's so amazing.
So weird that i hadn't heard it. So, so weird.
Beautiful patterns.
I've listened to Opeth for over a decade and never even knew this song existed! what album is it off of? Is it a single?
Kyle Farnsworth Bonus track BP 2012

Yes! Why won't this song be spotify?
Javier Torres
The Jews. Duh.
@Layne Staley Fuck off.
Holy smokes. How'd I ever forget about this song!?? It's been YEARS since I heard and I listen to Opeth on a regular basis.
Then I see this song and wonder "what is this? I thought Blackwater Park only had 8 songs." Listened to it and all the nostalgia came flooding back <3
guess what i want to be played at my funeral
Funeral Portrait ?
Steal my girl by 1D
Eternal soul torture?
Whatever the song, I'm sure you're gonna enjoy it.
Listening Blackwater Park songs after 5+ year break. I totally forgot the songs. It's like re-discovering. Undescripable experience. I've met many great bands between that period but now I realised Opeth is the most special one and ever will be
This is not from Blackwater Park, it is a single from 2002/03 to promote Damnation, along with Patterns in the Ivy II.
Lol... this and 'Patterns in the Ivy II' are, somehow, the b-sides of Blackwater Park my friend. They were recorded on Jonas Renkse's couch if I'm not mistaken.
These songs are on the Blackwater Park 2-disc special edition, one of their rarest releases. I have both these songs on the 7-inch vinyl, even rarer still, which I had signed about ten years later. It's absolutely a Blackwater era release. Just to fill ya in~
+Alexander Baker
Oh, i didn't know about this edition of the album. I knew these two songs first appeared on the reissued deluxe edition from 2002, but this special for the original release (2001) i did not know. So i thought the song was to promote the Damnation album, especially 'cause their sound is certainly more 'Damnation' than Blackwater Park; and with the fact that this special edition doesn't exist on Discogs, had totally me confused.
Anyway, thanks for clearing that up!
In my opinion this is nothing like the sound on Damnation. I was very disappointed of that album after listening to BWP+the bonus songs for a few years.
Btw have you listened to “Mordet i grottan”?
Killer songwriting.
First i heard was damnation album. I remember how i sat with my freestyle on the bus on a hot swedish summer day and had my first ear orgasm ever :D Thats a memory i´ll never forget
Alexander Larsson until you heard Morningrise
it was the first Opeth song I had heard 3 years ago.. instantly became a fan.. now I hv all their albums.. I miss their old growling style now.
It's a shame I know. Having said that I fucking adore Heritage onwards. Sorceress soon!
Anuj Upadhyay it's kinda funny that you said it in a song that doesn't have growls (and they have other songs without harsh vocals, you know, since morningrise)
They also lost this kind of music.
This is also kind of an obscure song to be your first. Lol
Mainstream pop to me.
@Heathen Nations Music Whatever makes you sleep at night.
oh everyone just chill out! I love Opeth and this song just as much as you all do and I've even known how to play this song for over 10 years...It was one of my first! Still kinda tricky. Great shit. I was just testing gullibility thresholds for fun
That's cool. I always hoped they would make an album of stripped down arrangements and sparse production such as this track. Like this and Still Day...demo quality
Nsync is what I listen to when I've grown tired of the soulless, radio and MTV-friendly crap Opeth writes. Nsync, now were talking deep, poetic and timeless music. Mozart eat your heart out!
You probably listen to tripe like Lamb Of God
Nice song !
Thanks for sharing ☺
Beautiful
0.60 un euro
? ahahah
I love Opeth's metal songs, but their acoustic/clean songs will always have a slightly higher place in my heart <3 So beautiful...
I feel the exact same way...
I got a playlist called "acoustic metal" ... pretty relaxing ¡¡¡
Do you call those blues-y ones like Hours of Wealth acoustic too ?
I love those ones, but I can't decide wether I prefer them over their metal songs. Long live Opeth !
I think the soft tracks are the best that they have to offer.
I love this song !!!!
perfect with a cup of tea under the sun
Which album is this from?
Blackwater Park
Marjana Semkina sent me here
+DangerousTim
same.
Long time Opeth fan ...never heard this till today....wow....dark and beautiful.......almost like a more melancholy beatle song...
Oh, yeah! Sad thing is, they're apparently going into hibernation. ...I don't like the sound of that.....they may or may not be back, time will tell......Their music is so amazing. ...
+Sean Bell Hey Sean, you're a dummy! New album this September!
Best band ever
@philip naclerio Àgreed!
Practically mesmerizing in its magical nostalgic charm.
Hmm seems like itunes has no power here
does anyone know how to obtain the legacy edition of Blackwater park, which contains this song and patterns in the ivy II
It's not on the legacy edition. It's in the special editor that released along that standard album. Only way to get it now is via a used cd.
Edition*
Stephiroth Drow Piratebay if you cant find a hard copy or digital one elsewhere
I'm feeling right now that this is the best song I have ever heard. Those lyrics put a vibrant colored movie in my head. No drugs in me atm.
@Jordan Wolff atm so soon :P?
+Drench3 I don't know what you mean... However, I saw their most recent show in L.A. and I think Opeth is more of a drug than a band. XD Seriously my fav band. and drug.
I thought i had listened to all Opeth Songs, but somehow i missed this one (probably because it was on the standard version of the album) and i got absolute goosebumps while listening to it. Basically happens all the time when i first listen to an opeth song.
Don't let "Patterns in the Ivy II" or "Throat of Winter" slip by either!
Or "Mellotron Heart" ^ .^
A lot of people don't know what they're missing
@Rocky Coroner What is this comment?
Layne staley lead singer of AiC
I see now. Makes much more sense when you point it out.
Missing out on beautiful music
Bryan C
Damn right man. I’m back for more. I find comfort in this being my favorite song by them yet it has less then 400,000 views. Even more than at least a year ago.
Mikael is the best thing to grace the world of music in the history of ever.
You have to give props to Waters and Gilmour, as Mikael explained
Floyd was a huge inspiration. You can tell that some of these rifts are really similar to some of Floyd's earlier finger picking songs.
Yeah, but the ending of Blackwater Park is a perfect ending to the album.
touches the .......soul <3
