This was the very first opeth song that really caught my eye,
saw it first played live on the lamenations DVD then and i watched
michael play it and learned the first few chord, but the studio
version is just as good as it is live, either way this song is still
a catchy bit of guitar work :)
regular tuning EBGDAE Acoustic (twelve string if possible)

| Hmm, based on the theme of the album I would have to say this is someone's struggle with the news of the death of a loved one and their regret for not seeking forgiveness from them for any past transgressions. "There's nothing painful... sins undone." To me sounds like the person is trying to shrug off the guilt for whatever he/she may have done to the now dead individual. | |

| in the last part, where he has time to think again, he realizes in the process of cleaning himself, he's also gotten rid of what was what he thought was important --it prolly was something negative. and now he misses what he was. for some reason, i think of a guy, walking alone, in open space, like a desert. | |

| I think it's about a man whose hurting himself for past grtievances. He feels guilt and can't cope, so he cuts/hurts himself to make up for it. | |
