Wild groves, sacred grounds fade to vastness Mother Moon, cast your spell on these fields Let the boughs paint ghostly shades on the trail To a different world Where the castle looks out to a valley Where I'm given all the love that I crave Not afraid of the rising sun laying bare my brittle soul Cold is the wind Bringing forth clarity Time rushing on And nothing will remain There's no glory on the last journey home, home Home, home Home, home Home, home
Looking down from this pure cup of heaven Onto an ocean of white that drowns All the noise and decree And the craze in empty eyes Wide-eyed I'm lost in my imagination A dream of love I've got to suffocate while I keep on waiting For the hour I'll be called to realize And see it all before my eyes The sky is crawling down the mound Into the deadwood on the ground They say Spectres flare and spit and rise To mingle with the skies And take all that's never meant to be
A fire in the dark for the fool's gonna find his way Gonna run and never get away Is it love that glows in fiery alignment? Starry-eyed, maybe living a lie? A lonely heart in an endless line Oh raven child Raven child
Bewildering and strange The scent of spring and cherry blossoms Sweet scent of rain They're calling you Astounding how it is Not the same it used to be When you're compelled behind The crenel on your own The tolling of the bell Is there anyone to tell me What they wanna say? Voices go on and on and on to me But their tongues won't permeate Throughout my soul In your altered state of mind In vain you're chasing light Your master in his frown Denial of the crown of creation You're made to think you are
A fire in the dark for the fool's gonna find his way Gonna run and never get away Is it love that glows in fiery alignment? A fire in the dark for the fool's gonna find his way Gonna run and never get away Is it love that glows in fiery alignment? Starry-eyed, maybe living a lie? A lonely heart in an endless line
Light breeze in the crowns of the willows Green fields as if the day was on the wane Grow faint and attain to perfection What a backdrop for a diamond And so we sway in the wind like the willow Meant to give way to the order of the storm Won't leave a mould in the marsh of the ages A tired chevalier of fortune Blue and serene once a sky swanned on magic The unborn in the stream of destiny Time flows to become a mound of nothing For a broken soldier of fortune On my Comin' down Goin' all the way now You won't get away You know Finally the way you're shown You're goin' now Comin' down Goin' all the way now You won't get away You know Finally the way you're shown You're goin' now Comin' down Goin' all the way now You won't get away You know Finally the way you're shown You're goin' now Comin' down Goin' all the way now You won't get away You know Finally the way you're shown You're goin' now Comin' down Goin' all the way now You won't get away You know Finally the way you're shown You're goin' now Comin' down Goin' all the way now You won't get away You know Finally the way you're shown You're goin' now Comin' down Goin' all the way now You won't get away You know Finally the way you're shown You're goin' now Comin' down Goin' all the way now You won't get away You know Finally the way you're shown You're goin' now
Into the light In the light there's a crack torn open From underneath the day In the light, but a crack, is it growing? Feel the dark rolling in, your way Feel the light look away It's gonna blind you Ignite your spirits fly See a light to uncloak their master To arouse the beaten mind In the light there's a crack torn open From underneath the day You dream and fly In the light, but a crack, is it growing? Feel the dark rolling in your way Hey raven child Feel the light look away It's gonna blind you Ignite your spirits fly Uncloak the raven master To arouse the beaten mind
You tuck away yourself inside You ride away on the inmost light Your soul glowing opal-blue A million voices fade away I never really got what they're trying to say For my words there's no getting through, oh Oh, you sail to the night's plutonian shore You drift to sleep You can't take no more of this And like a raven child You spread your paltry wings and throw Yourself into the wind to escape from all below That despised the raven child Am I awake or is it an evil dream Or maybe the ugly in between Like me, a weak hermaphrodite A broken soul in unimpaired parts In quest for light but it was the dark That embraced the raven child A cloak of invisibility To curtain The face of deformity No, darkness let me in Off to the night's plutonian shores You dream and hope you won't wake no more to this Flying raven child Oh, fiery eyes Flying raven child Oh, fiery eyes Oh, to escape from all below Spread your wings and go Like a raven child
