After Death
After Death
Ravens claws pierce through my chest
it's beak relentlessly devours the rest
Who be the lord of these ebony beasts
Forth they are sent valkyries
Black arrows cut through the cold misty eve
Gathering souls from the severed remains
Glance upon flesh with thy glistening eye
Gather whatever is required this night
Pick the flesh from the bones and bare all to see
Where am I to go from here
Oh raven, oh symbol of death,
you keep tormenting me,
casting my shadow so bleak
driving me deep, deep in to madness.
Moonlit eyes cast the passageway into your soul,
illuminate your past for your fate to unfurl.
Let me guide your spirit be one with the wind,
enticed by the shadow of doubt
Since death I've feared the worse,
speak and tell me if I'm blessed or cursed.
Black marble are the eyes of the raven,
speak and tell me if I'm blessed or cursed,
a sign of misfortune as I breath my last.
Carry my spirit from life, into death.
Pick the flesh from the bones and bare all to see
Where am I to go from here
Oh raven, oh symbol of death,
you keep tormenting me,
casting my shadow so bleak
driving me deep, deep in to madness.
Moonlit eyes cast the passageway into your soul,
illuminate your Past for your fate to unfurl.
Let me guide your spirit
be one with the wind,
enticed by the shadow of doubt
To behold such beauty repulsing
The stench of death is truly revolting
Her silhouette drifts, gracefully floating
I wish to leave no secrets
Ravens claws pierce through my chest
it's beak relentlessly devours the rest
Who be the lord of these ebony beasts
Forth they are sent valkyries
Black arrows cut through the cold misty eve
Gathering souls from the severed remains
Glance upon flesh with thy glistening eye
Gather whatever is required this night
Pick the flesh from the bones and bare all to see
Where am I to go from here
Oh raven, oh symbol of death,
you keep tormenting me,
casting my shadow so bleak
driving me deep, deep in to madness.
Moonlit eyes cast the passageway into your soul,
illuminate your past for your fate to unfurl.
Let me guide your spirit be one with the wind,
enticed by the shadow of doubt
Since death I've feared the worse,
speak and tell me if I'm blessed or cursed.
Black marble are the eyes of the raven,
speak and tell me if I'm blessed or cursed,
a sign of misfortune as I breath my last.
Carry my spirit from life, into death.
Pick the flesh from the bones and bare all to see
Where am I to go from here
Oh raven, oh symbol of death,
you keep tormenting me,
casting my shadow so bleak
driving me deep, deep in to madness.
Moonlit eyes cast the passageway into your soul,
illuminate your Past for your fate to unfurl.
Let me guide your spirit
be one with the wind,
enticed by the shadow of doubt
To behold such beauty repulsing
The stench of death is truly revolting
Her silhouette drifts, gracefully floating
I wish to leave no secrets
