Ravenblood - Hanging Over the River

There once was a light inside the night
You could hear the cry of a damned child
Gazing the stars for a trace of an answer
A trace of a word to stand up and fight

And you could feel his wrath
It knew why he was crying again
You could glance it in his eyes
The fire and the desire of avenge

Oooh, let the lightning
Oooh, be his guide
While searching for the meaning of his life

Now you can see no light inside his heart
His cry was shut by insanity's hand
Even knowing this could be his end
He could not find, yet, a reason to care

And now, this river is your silent witness
While that rope is tied to your neck
And why, besides your own soul,
You still find no reason to regret?

Oh! But in his mind
The nights become much longer!
Oh! Yet he knows he will fall
While in this day he's only one step far from hell

Oooh, let the lightning
Oooh, be my guide
Searching in my dreams for a place to go and die

A whispering voice, a nightmare now swollen
by his fears became alive
And so it shouted and pressed on his back
By the time a pray came to his mind:

Being one with the rain
Being freed from life without a trace of pain

Oooh, let the river
Take my last breath of life
Oooh, and let the rain
Help out my last tear of love
Still searching for the meaning of my life
