one stormy night an angel fell

the raven sold his dreams in hell

to keep the light from burning skies

like he's been told to roll the dice



the angel smiled and said hello

I'm just a tale from long ago

the endless mile I've walked alone

l've roamed the trail of tears and stone



fogs rise - when dreams decay

fools - wise - who dares to say

it's over now - it's over now - someway - somehow

the wheel stopped turning

it's over now - it's over now - it's over now

and real



the raven laughed and then he cried

of war and blood and those who died

"...one friend to have is worth the weight

and what you've got - you'll see too late..."
