"Ravens" lyrics

There's a hope in the dark
Just a spark
I won't pretend that I know who you are
You're a shadow inside
So am I
Our former selves cast a dwindling light
And it's dark in my head
I hear 'em again
The ravens outside on a white picket fence
I don't what they say said
They beckon me towards the end
That I desperately try to prevent

Woah
These skeletons know
Woah

Time won't tell you the truth
I won't sell your excuse
'Cause lies grow under these roots
And I know
This forest is overgrown
The ties are cut and severed
And I've been doing better
But I would wait forever
To see you both together
But I know what you would do
Your legacy follows me
Ravens are calling me down

There's a hope behind cellar doors
Just a light
Methadone reservoirs ended your life
And if that's where I'm headed for
I'm alright
I won't see heaven for many more nights
But it's hell where I've been
I hear 'em again
The ravens outside on a white picket fence
I don't know what they said
They beckon me towards the end
That I desperately try to prevent

(I've been awake for so many days)
Woah
(I couldn't tell you 'cause I was afraid)
These skeletons know
(I've been away for so many days)
Woah
(I couldn't find you 'cause I was afraid)

Time won't tell you the truth
I won't sell your excuse
'Cause lies grow under these roots
And I know
This forest is overgrown
The ties are cut and severed
And I've been doing better
But I would wait forever
To see you both together
But I know what you would do
Your legacy follows me
Ravens are calling me down

Time won't tell you the truth
I won't, I won't
'Cause lies grow under these roots
And I know
This forest is overgrown
The ties are cut and severed
And I've been doing better
But I would wait forever
To see you both together
But I know what you would do
Your legacy follows me
Ravens are calling me down
(Down)
(Ravens are calling me down)
