The Raven Waits
Like a scene from a horror show
There's a raven tapping at your window
Rain is flowing, flooding in the hedgerow
Your mind is screaming
Flapping like its wings now
Is this an omen?
Something that you don't know?
Or are you just about
To reap the seeds you sow?
What you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
When you were a child you played with time
And everything you did was fine
The light shone out of your eyes
The monsters turned into butterflies
In your mind
What you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
And oh
Time is much older now
And the dreams, what do they mean?
What you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
And so
Is this goodbye now?
To the friends that you've known
And the toys that you've owned
In your life...
As the raven waits on the pearly gates
And the soul inside hesitates
What you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
Oh what you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
What you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
There's a raven tapping at your window
Rain is flowing, flooding in the hedgerow
Your mind is screaming
Flapping like its wings now
Is this an omen?
Something that you don't know?
Or are you just about
To reap the seeds you sow?
What you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
When you were a child you played with time
And everything you did was fine
The light shone out of your eyes
The monsters turned into butterflies
In your mind
What you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
And oh
Time is much older now
And the dreams, what do they mean?
What you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
And so
Is this goodbye now?
To the friends that you've known
And the toys that you've owned
In your life...
As the raven waits on the pearly gates
And the soul inside hesitates
What you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
Oh what you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
What you see is what you get
You ain't seen nothing yet
