i suppose any of one of you haters could write better lyrics than mikael, especially those are are most personal to him? i think he said himself, in the lamentations doc i think, that he doesn't consider himself to be a great lyricist, and i personally am not very good with words and am not an admirer of much poetry or anything, but i think mike puts a very great deal of thought and emotion into his lyrics, and i mean especially shit like the entire watershed album, which i think seems to think deals with his own personal life and perhaps the lineup changes and what-not, and of course he has written about things like passed family members and such, which i can relate to as my father has passed away last year. anyway i think his lyrics are awesome and haunting and just fucking incredible. but if you'd rather listen to people singing about money and bitches and hittin that bootay and bling blang or what the fuck ever, then you shouldn't be on opeth's forum, imo.
