Cover art for Opium lyrics by Dead Can Dance

This is probably DCD's most intense cut, ever; puts you into a deep trance that is hard to get out of.

All about freedom and trying to find your path to truth with the help of your female muse (who rains "salt brined tears" onto your tongue), inspiring you to reach the heights that she has scaled.
