The Raven Lyrics

Dream of the goddess who ferries the dead

Dream of the statue who's lacking a head

Dream of the forest that fills you with dread

I am the raven, watching, evermore

Dream of your victims who cannot be saved

Dream of the pews in a chapel turned grave

Dream of memories recovered, you crave

I am the raven, taunting, evermore

Dream of the bones of a love that ne'er was

Dream of the mother who killed her own blood

Dream of her lips and of breaking Death's laws

I am the raven, yearning, evermore

I am the nightmare whose wings will take flight

I am the message whose meaning you spite

Though you may fear me, and though you may bite

If I am gone, you'll exist nevermore
