|
The raven's my totem; my brother |
|
He is me; I am him |
|
Watching this innocent world |
|
Grow increasingly grim |
|
The raven's the sign you'll see |
|
When darkness is near |
|
Rooted deep in your heart |
|
Your primeval fear |
|
A black garment suits a black soul |
|
Avoided since days of old |
|
There flies the raven |
|
I am the dark spirit inside yourself |
|
You dare not name |
|
I am the lunatic you need |
|
To know you're still sane |
|
My ancestors long ago |
|
Served the one-eyed lord |
|
So today, a jester of darkness |
|
I see and report |
|
A black garment suits a black soul |
|
Avoided since days of old |
|
There flies the raven |
|
Gloomweaver eternal |
|
Children of the light: Scorn me not |
|
Be content you're not me |
|
Be content you're not me |
|
From old they have feared him |
|
(There flies the raven) |
|
Never dared to be near him |
|
(There flies the raven) |
|
The darkwinged omen: |
|
Who will live, who will die |
|
You better beware |
|
When you hear the raven cry |
|
When you hear the raven cry |
