Keeping this thought alive
drawing the skin with a knife
but pain is inside an anguished mind
A clock stopped on the wall
cannot pause the time
everything is near, everything is so far
Tortured by ravens, baby
‘tween you and the rest of your life
Tortured by ravens, baby
Please come back and bite my face
free your wings over me
then eat my skin once more
Please come back and bruise my arms
eat my eyes and peck at my skull
then rip my brain once more, once more.
Over this wasteland
I’m lying on blood sand
I cannot pretend
nothing has happened
Tortured by ravens, baby
‘tween you and the rest of your life
Tortured by ravens, baby
‘tween you and the rest of your time
Tortured by ravens, baby
Please come back and bite my face
free your wings over me
then eat my skin once more
please come back and bruise my arms
eat my eyes and peck at my skull
then rip my brain once more, once more.
