A flutter of jet black feathers

And with it, despair

In the dark abyss

Where I search for you

-

The claustrophobic darkness

Where nothing penetrates

The beacon of light

Is already beyond repair

-

What can I do?

The endless back hole

Has engulfed me after all

The jet black raven

Scatters its ashen feathers

-

Stop the ashes from falling

The rain from washing away my tears

That I try not to show

-

Stop the rain from falling

The ashes from staining my cheeks

You know I’m crying, I know 

-

The faded landscape is stained

With our faults and grievances

Memories are thrown away

Like floating leaves in the gutter

-

The remnants of your existence

Hangs cloudily above my head

While I live life everyday 

Like we’ve never ever met

-

Despair will never be gone after all

The sand flies from my clutched hand

The feeling of hopelessness

Will dye the sky and the clouds

A raven black, yeah

-

Stop the ashes from falling

The rain from washing away my tears

That you pretend not to know

-

Stop the rain from falling

The ashes from staining my cheeks

Like a child who loses his pinky vow

A lonely black raven

-

Stop the ashes from falling

The rain from washing away my tears

That I try not to show

-

Stop the rain from falling

The ashes from staining my cheeks

You know I’m crying, I know 

-

The cry of a black raven

-
