	This is the song where Opeth reached their peak. 11 minutes of beauty.

No Picture khairney Wanna Be	#2 by khairney drew at Apr 4, 1973 at 6:33 AM EST
	Mikael said this song is about his grandfather.

No Picture Bill Wanna Be	#3 by Bill Rossi at Sep 11, 1975 at 4:53 PM EST
	8:36-10:30 kicks my ass every time.

No Picture Tommy Wanna Be	#4 by Tommy Déry at Feb 18, 1978 at 11:35 AM EST
	Interesting..

No Picture Craig Average	#5 by Craig Brotschi at Jul 8, 1980 at 12:42 PM EST
	This is about Mikael's grandfather, that is completely true.

No Picture Rafael Average	#6 by Rafael Santos at Dec 23, 1981 at 3:20 PM EST
	About seeing somebody - a relative? - at their funeral. I'm pretty sure he's standing by a lake he used to visit with this person, who is possibly his father or grandfather, and remembering the person's death and their funeral, which happened when the narrator was still a child.

No Picture spud Average	#7 by spud barnes at May 11, 1986 at 6:42 AM EST
	Yeah, it's about visiting his grandfather's grave, I believe. And about his sorrow over the grandfather's death. I have to say, this song is the greatest tribute he could give to a dead relative. It's amazing. Ha, if only people wrote such great songs about me!

No Picture Selim Average	#8 by Selim Fen at Dec 29, 1986 at 2:44 AM EST
	I have read that this was written about the death of Mike's grandfather, so I believe 6th sadistic sniper is right. But hey, it's all open, right?

No Picture Vezy Professional	#9 by Vezy at Jan 3, 2003 at 5:31 PM EST
	Not necessarily, It could be the "death" of a relationship that meant alot to the narrator, when i hear it, it reminds me of how your memory fades, and peoples images change, sadness overtakes and you start asking why.. or what if. There are 2 sides to this song though, the lyrics, and the guitars. most of this song the guitars are in harmony.... and ill tell u now, when u play along with em on the guitar, or even just listen carefully, there is as much if not more emotion in the guitar than the lyrics themselves, i believe its the lyrics that help to define a "verbal" landscape of what the song as a whole is tryin to achieve
