Raven

I saw a raven flying overhead It crossed the yard and landed on the shed And as it cawed couldn't help but wonder what it said Was it a raven or an omen from the dead I didn't know I saw a wolf just walking in the street The world was empty it was just him and me And as he stopped and turned his head around to see

I was stuck there staring at my feet I was scared Unprepared He didn't care I had a friend who used to throw his life away He'd sit around and drink his heart out til he'd faint I always hoped he'd turn around and find his way But I found out that he died the other day

He was scared Unprepared Nobody cared I don't believe In what I cannot perceive But I saw that raven flying over me And the wolf is standing naked in the street
