Lyrics

A sacrifice to keep the soil red
I won't let it stain my hands
Stranger to a home I don't understand
Find a way to survive
The gods remain in silence
Just send me a sign
And talk to me
Why are your eyes closed to me?
Only the raven
The raven knows
Why won't the sky burn for me?
Only the raven
The raven knows
I used to see the promised land
Wild like the wolf in me
Am I losing my devotion to set me free?
Find a way to survive
The gods remain in silence
Just send me a sign
Why don't you talk to me?
Why are your eyes closed to me?
Only the raven
The raven knows
Why won't the sky burn for me?
Only the raven
The raven knows
Why are your eyes closed to me?
Only the raven
The raven knows
Why won't the sky burn for me?
Only the raven
The raven knows
