Sad... The first comment is mine, so I'll say it...
This is my favorite song from Eternity. Why Anathema doesn't play these songs live is understandable. This album is so powerful that it is emotionally difficult to perform, and that is such a respectable feat by any musician.
My favorite part is the last verse, and I think it is the climax of the album. The published lyrics make it seem like the character is not going to commit suicide, but if you continue listening, he shouts "never to return", and that is not in the lyrics. So, its a song that could go both ways. And that's why it's incredible.
