Deadly Raven
Sitting atop the old decaying tree
Is a deadly raven quite pathetic
Where his lusting eyes do more than just see
An unsuspecting group thinks they are free
Raven thinks of a move that’s genetic
Sitting atop the old decaying tree
No-one knows what it’s like to truly be
One of this group, death is just magnetic
Where his lusting eyes do more than just see
Down he swoops taking one soul completely
Returns to tree, looking quite poetic
Sitting atop the old decaying tree
The raven smiles as he caws wickedly
Soul collecting might be more aesthetic
Where his lusting eyes do more than just see
The raven flies high looking lustfully
All that he’s collected that’s prophetic
Sitting atop the old decaying tree
Where his lusting eyes do more than just see
