I long for the day when fear and force are no longer the primary means by which men deal with one another.

"Black Rose Immortal" by Opeth

"In the name of desperation
I call your name
A lamentation I sigh
Again and again

Spiritual eclipse
The gateways are closed for me to seek

The night...
A veil of stars, watching
My shadow is born from light
The light of the eye, in darkness

Over troubled waters memories soar
Endlessly, searching night and day
The moonlight caresses a lonely hill
With the calmness of a whisper

I wear a naked soul
A blank face in the streaming water
It is cold in here
Frost scar my coat with dust

Eyes attach to your mute portrait
We spoke only through thoughts
Together we gazed, awaited
Hours brought thirst and the rising sun

Sunbirds leave their dark recesses
Shadows glid the archways

Do not turn your face towards me
Confronting me with my loneliness
You are in a forest unknown
The secret orchard
And your voice is vast and achromatic
But still so precious

Lullaby of the crescent moon took you
Mesmerized, its kaleidoscopic face
Granted you a hollow stare
Another soul within the divine herd

I have kept it
The amaranth symbol
Hidden inside the golden shrine
Until we rejoice in the meadow
Of the end
When we both walk the shadows
It will set ablaze and vanish
Black rose immortal

It is getting dark again
Dusk shuffle across the fields
The evening trees moan as if they knew
At night I always dream of you"

Meaning- I think it's about a man who has recently lost his lover. He is standing outside staring at her portrait in a locket he keeps and realizing how desolate and empty the world seems without her.

Only dumb kids think the games are better. Anyone who's ever touched a real guitar before knows that the real thing is a million times more incredible.

I own 9 guitars, all have stands/cases. I guess that's kind of a collection.


You bastard, I only have 8 guitars and I thought I had a pretty damn good collection :).

No, I disagree. Agnostic means you recognize the possibility that there might be a God. Atheist means you do not believe that there is any God at all. The reason I am an Atheist is because I am a huge fan of freedom. Believing that somebody is always watching your every move and judging your every thought is not freedom. Believing that you will be punished in Hell unless you act a certain way is not freedom. Believing that the only way to be happy is to be a wretched, self-hating servant who's biggest goal in life is to sacrifice everything to everyone else is not freedom. That's why I can't ever believe in God. Because I believe in freedom.

Maybe if he had a solid, sensible message instead of pointless filler-speak then he wouldn't have to pull stunts like this.
