I can't see the meaning
Of this life I'm leading
I try to forget you
As you forgot me
This time there is nothing
Left for you to take
This is goodbye
Summer is miles and miles away
And no one would ask me to stay
And I
Should contemplate this change
To ease the pain
And I
Should step out of the rain
Turn away
Close to ending it all
I am drifting through the
Stages of the rapture
Born within this loss
Thoughts of death inside
Tear me apart from the
Core of my soul
Summer is miles and miles away
And no one would ask me to stay
And I
Should contemplate this change
To ease the pain
And I
Should step out of the rain
Turn away
At times the
Dark's fading slowly
But it never sustains
Would someone
Watch over me
In my time of need?
Summer is miles and miles away
And no one would ask me to stay
And I
Should contemplate this change
To ease the pain
And I
Should step out of the rain
Turn away
And I
Should contemplate this change
To ease the pain
And I
Should step out of the rain
Turn away
Of this life I'm leading
I try to forget you
As you forgot me
This time there is nothing
Left for you to take
This is goodbye
Summer is miles and miles away
And no one would ask me to stay
And I
Should contemplate this change
To ease the pain
And I
Should step out of the rain
Turn away
Close to ending it all
I am drifting through the
Stages of the rapture
Born within this loss
Thoughts of death inside
Tear me apart from the
Core of my soul
Summer is miles and miles away
And no one would ask me to stay
And I
Should contemplate this change
To ease the pain
And I
Should step out of the rain
Turn away
At times the
Dark's fading slowly
But it never sustains
Would someone
Watch over me
In my time of need?
Summer is miles and miles away
And no one would ask me to stay
And I
Should contemplate this change
To ease the pain
And I
Should step out of the rain
Turn away
And I
Should contemplate this change
To ease the pain
And I
Should step out of the rain
Turn away

Ahh, I'm so glad this site is up again. :) Anyway, here is what I got from this song. This may not be EXACTLY what the songwriter meant, but I can relate to the lyrics on a very personal level. The lyrics "Summer is miles and miles away, and no one would ask me to stay" are the ones that struck a chord with me. The person is depressed, but is doesn't really want to kill himself at first. He thinks, or hopes, that perhaps he may have a reason to live. Someone might miss him if he died. Someone may want him to still be around. However, to his dismay and disappointment, no one seemed to care. "No would ask me to stay." Sad, sad song, but I like it. It's georgous. I love Opeth! They're beautiful whether they're heavy or soft. :)
really agree with you... exactally what i thought of this song....<br /> <br />
