Empty RoomsA Poem by RavenwingLyrics. Wrote this recently (the past year or earlier this year (2014), can't remember haha).Verse 1: There’s a raven that cries ‘Nevermore’ As if I lost a lover Lenore… In this empty room…empty room. In this empty room…empty room. There’s roots that crawl like worms Across a black sea that swarms… In this empty room…empty room. In this empty room… Empty room! Oh, dear Crow, do not shout death Oh, dear Dove, give me breath Angels bring me your wings As a pure chime rings Help me fly to His Light Oh, dear God, save me from this darkest night…. Refrain: Empty rooms are nothing Decaying leaves That’s the only something Suffocating oxygen Poisonous gin Across a snickering grin Oh, Lord, save me from my sin Overcome this seam That shines with fake gleam And carries a corrupt dream Verse 2: Oh, prodigal son, stop calling me I am not into thee In your empty room…empty room. In your empty room…empty room. Your beauty is destruction Lies’ construction In your empty room…empty room In your empty room… Empty room! Oh, dear Crow, stop singing your lullaby Oh, dear Dove, let not my soul go awry Jesus, cover me with your blood Save me from the tempter’s crud Michael with your sword Protect me from the dark lord….. *repeat Refrain* Bridge: Fantasies galore Salvia of more Vanity that beats Against the heart of heats Yet in this empty room of darkness… In this blackest night…. A Light shines forth To clear the dreary skies Once my will and mind is clear, Whole repentance done Jesus’s blood stirs in me To cleanse my sin and vanity And once again, freedom is won! Conclusion: So, oh, dear Raven and Crow, you win no more And oh, dear Dove and Father, thank you forevermore For though battles of good and evil are many, Christ’s Sacrifice has victory already Over our empty rooms… Empty rooms…. © 2014 Ravenwing |
