lyrics

OPIUM DEN

Hush little Raven can't you see the light 
The light that shines around your head 
You whispered "go!
Leave me alone with the dead" 

Hush little Raven don't stay in the dark
Leave with me and don't look back
You turned away and said
"This world is painted black"

"There is no way you can break my chains 
They cut straight through my soul 
They've burned so long 
My life has made them strong" 

Hush little Raven don't fall asleep
Or you will never leave this hell
You said "this is my life"
"This deep and cold dark hidden well"

Hush little Raven how can you say
That no one ever cared for you
You closed your eyes
Said "love's for fools"

"You still believe that the world is kind
Well no one ever proved it
So why should I
Refuse to die"

Hush little Raven I will be here
For you anytime you need me
You said "it is my own pain
Just forget my name and leave"

Hush little Raven people tell lies
To themselves every day
If you could see yourself for real
You would not turn away

I will find you wherever you go
I will never leave you
Take my hand
Make a stand
