ÄNGLARNAS SÅNGBOK

DARK RAVENS

VERS: LUCINDA
In the shadows where the echoes lie,
I watch my brother, beneath the darkened sky
He wears our father's crown, but it's monster
feels like a curse
The weight of vengeance grows, as our
world get worse

VERS: LUCINDA
Our new life, our youth now ends
with their deaths
And there's a brewing war this land that's approaching our doorsteps
He's always first, father's heir and I'm next
My eldest and older brother, we can bear
this burden

PRE-CHORUS: LUCINDA
A few choices
A lot of empty plates now filled with greed
But the hunger for revenge plants a
dangerous seed
Maybe it's better that our father's dead

PRE-CHORUS 2: LUCINDA
How many times did his hate leave
our mother crumbling down, down?
How many times would he rage as
you cowered on the ground, the ground?

CHORUS: LUCINDA
Don't be ashamed of
the Dark Raven, Dark Raven, oh
The monster behind our name
He may be deep in your nightmares now
But stick with me, brother, we'll figure it out
You're not the same as the
Dark Raven
Dark Raven

VERS: LUCINDA
A year has passed, we push through
I mend a broken heart from the
man who made us
My compassion, my kindness and love
Aren't enough to save the brother you used to be
Then she sees behind your facade,
and you shut her out
And you're wanted for murder and
theft, but I know

PRE-CHORUS: LUCINDA
That you're good, but now that you've changed
And she's your wife and slave,
you know I have to ask
How many times has your hate and grief
Led you breaking down, down?
How many times did you rage
Did she cower beneath you on the ground
Is she still alright?

CHORUS: LUCINDA:
You're not ashamed of the Dark Raven
Dark Raven, ooh-ooh
Darkness haunts my nightmares now
And you tell me just to figure it out and obey
Now you're the same as the Dark Raven
Dark Raven, ooh-ooh

BRIDGE: LUCINDA
White wedding dresses and
battles in the Angel Hunters arena
I spent my whole life in your shadow,
and seven years under your obedience
And while you ruled our father's land
I stand by our second cousin and the allies now
Despite you marrying me off
to a man who reminds me of you
And him, our cousin Coriolanus Serrano,
maybe of who I thought you were

POST-CHORUS: LUCINDA
Yes, I'm ashamed the Dark Ravens,
Dark Ravens, oh
The monsters behind our name
But I'm not afraid of the Dark Ravens, Dark Ravens, ooh
They're still in my nightmares now
But I'll sleep knowing someone
will bring my brother down like they
did our father
I'm not the same as the Dark Ravens, Dark Ravens, ooh

OUTRO: LUCINDA
I'm not the same as the Dark Ravens, Dark Ravens
