Black Raven

If you feel stranded Hung out on the line Like you've been branded Bottle up in formaldehyde Stuck on a shelf beneath fluorescent lights Just hide, it's okay, just hide, it's alright, just hide It grabs you, temptation Flys above you like a black raven It shakes you, berates you From the moment they rocked your cradle It stabs you, salvation Blacker than the eyes of that raven It spins you, it pins you down If you've been wounded, and you're wishing it was done Never included, once again alone If every face that smiles is a loaded gun Just run, it's okay, just run, it's alright, just run Run It grabs you, temptation Flys above you like a black raven It shakes you, berates you From the moment they rocked your cradle It stabs you, salvation Blacker than the eyes of that raven It spins you, it pins you down When you feel hopeless, look into the light Every kid should have someone to hold them tight Don't surrender, boy, don't run, don't hide Fight It grabs you, temptation Flys above you like a black raven It shakes you, berates you From the moment they rocked your cradle It stabs you, salvation Blacker than the eyes of that raven It spins you, it pins you down
