Ah, distinctly I remember
It was in the bleak December
And each separate dying ember wrought
Its ghost upon the floor
In these plague days we're hiding
Trapped in our chambers, gliding
Over seas of death
So scared of landing
At this fest of gore
There I thought of the unspoken
Of the lives that now are broken
When I heard that something's stroken
Hardly, cracking
Window's glass
I saw raven
Child of thunder
Mystic bird
The darkest wonder
As the skies were
Torn asunder
I was hoping
Doom would pass
Harbinger of plague
With wings of purest ebony
Black opal eyes (black opal eyes)
Haunting soul
I asked raven
Can I take back days of yore
Croaked the raven
Nevermore!
Gaze of bird was piercing, chilling
Down the spine
Its blame was thrilling
Inside me it woke up feeling
That I'm guilty
In their deaths
Closing doors of
My dark chamber
Letting nobody to enter
Letting reaper
Dismember
Bodies, taking
Final breath
Harbinger of plague
With wings of purest ebony
Black opal eyes (black opal eyes)
Haunting soul
I asked raven
Can I take back days of yore
Croaked the raven
Nevermore!
Nevermore!
Raven, art thou
Judge undaunted
On this desert land enchanted
On this home by horror haunted
Tell me truly
I implore!
Shall I see the dawn this morning
Or the angels
Will be mourning
For my soul
In hellfire burning?
Quoth the raven
Nevermore!
Harbinger of plague
With wings of purest ebony
Black opal eyes (black opal eyes)
Haunting soul
Raven, tell
If I survive, tell, I implore
Quoth the raven
Nevermore!
Oh
Nevermore!
