It's the age of the raven and now they are spreading their wings With just one thing in their minds they burn and destroy everything In a cloud of aggression they swoop to take their prey again As they're circling the air their dark shadows are cast over me Will they take me? Will they take them? Will they take us all as their victims? If you show them the fear in your eyes you will never be free Do we stand up and fight them or run and hide never be seen As you stare at the city the place is a burial ground Left in hiding are those who are hunted, don't dare make a sound Will they pray for me? Will they take them? Will they take us all as their victims? Will God answer me? Hear my prayers now? Will he save me from this hell on earth? Now, do I save myself? Burn it all behind and leave everyone else to die As they're being eaten alive And they take out their eyes, leave them blind This time I fight I must search within myself and find Whatever it takes to survive Never facing my fears, always turning to run But this time I will overcome In the distance we hear them, the ravens preparing to fly And the thunder of wings getting closer reign down from the sky The invasion of black is a dark cloud that covers the sun Now the darkness descending upon us, there's nowhere to run Will they pray for me? Will they take them? Will they take us all as their victims? Will God answer me? Hear my prayers now? Will he save me from this hell on earth? Now, do I save myself? Burn it all behind and leave everyone else to die As they're being eaten alive And they take out their eyes, leave them blind This time I fight I must search within myself and find Whatever it takes to survive Never facing my fears, always turning to run But this time I will overcome Waiting for weakness Then preying, no mercy is given With all this bloodshed and crying I beg for the end I must search within myself and find Whatever it takes to survice Never facing my fears, always turning to run But this time I will overcome I must search inside myself and see All the courage that's deep within me Never facing my fears, always running away The beginning of a raven age is upon us

Waste all your time writing love songs But you don't love me All too familiar when it feels wrong I think you're just lonely Do you mind?
