Benighted is The third Track on Opeth’s concept album Still Life and it reads like a love letter, basically an unspoken ode to Melinda. The outcast tries to convince her to come with him because he loves her. He tries to convince her to abandon her religion which is like a chain around her neck in his eyes.

One of my favorite Opeth songs... I see myself in a castle with ghosts. Like mvodak said, mesmerizing.

The starting melody is the same, but after that the 2 songs are very different. This is much more chilled.
