The Raven and I

When the raven flies high So do I And when the raven falls I get stuck in these lonely white halls Neither free when one is trapped History repeats as time relapsed Just as a raven caws for its broken wings I lose myself in rage as my heart stings As the raven loses hope for returning to the skies I forget who I am and become absorbed in lies Now the raven begs for his wings to heal While crimson regret my heart must conceal And when the raven's soul breaks and sees his time has past I lose my mind and lose it fast So as the night carries the raven's soul away A fire burns my emotions assuring in the darkness I will stay
