To wish upon a raven
One must first grow its wings
To wish upon a raven
Waste not time on petty things
To wish upon a raven
One must know how it feels
To soar above the heavens
To feel freedom and know fear
To wish upon a raven
Knowing suffering is key
To wish upon a raven
Knowing tragedy of banshees
How they wail, how they groan
The very song, the very tone
Setting loose the sorrow
Sending warnings to the free
To wish upon a raven
You have to understand
That sometimes you’re the omen
Of bad luck and stories planned
To wish upon a raven
Ignorance you overcome
And if you wish upon a raven
The raven you become

To wish upon a raven
One must first grow its wings
To wish upon a raven
Waste not time on petty things
To wish upon a raven
One must know how it feels
To soar above the heavens
To feel freedom and know fear
To wish upon a raven
Knowing suffering is key
To wish upon a raven
Knowing tragedy of banshees
How they wail, how they groan
The very song, the very tone
Setting loose the sorrow
Sending warnings to the free
To wish upon a raven
You have to understand
That sometimes you’re the omen
Of bad luck and stories planned
To wish upon a raven
Ignorance you overcome
And if you wish upon a raven
The raven you become
