Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Caleb Lead Player	#1 by Caleb Kerns at Aug 4, 2006 at 1:57 PM EST
	Wonderful tab dude. I just learned it, perfect. Keep it up.

No Picture JAY Average	#2 by JAY at Nov 20, 2006 at 2:52 AM EST
	Yeah definitely about relationships. Being confused by the opposite sex ;-) My gleaming eye in your necklace reflects - stare of primal regrets: Primal regrets being sexual fantasies/urges or the like. Really sad song when you think about it, which just goes to show how effective a song it is.

No Picture Jack Average	#3 by Jack Tweddell at Dec 11, 2006 at 9:02 PM EST
	I agree with waht you said, sadistic sniper, only I think that the in the lines below show more a desire to end is own life rather than hers. "Spiralling to the ground below, like Autumn leaves left in the wake to fade away."

No Picture Lee Professional Badass	#4 by Lee the bass player, known as blacktooth90™ at Feb 13, 2007 at 9:49 AM EST
	'Please remedy my confusion And thrust me back to the day' Perhaps a once loving relationship gone stale?

No Picture Chase Wanna Be	#5 by Chase Allen at Feb 18, 2007 at 5:14 AM EST
	What said here makes sense. I was pretty clueless so this kind of sums it up for me. By the way, does anyone get the same rush I do when he screams "you turn your back and you walk away, never again"?

No Picture Jesus Professional	#6 by Jesus at Feb 19, 2007 at 7:13 AM EST
	This song is what got me into Opeth. A truly amazing piece.
