Lyrics

I'm falling here in the Ravensong, Dark wings are calling,
I hear your voice in the Ravensong, Cold winds are howling.

Listen to the Ravensong the mournful cry remains and echos through your hollow heart then drowned out by the rain.
Now all the dreams you dared to dream carried off on ravens wings. Cold black night take endless flight, can you hear the raven sing,
Thunder strikes the heavens and the lightning strikes the ground, born upon the autumn winds the ravensong comes down and moves like fog around your heart in stone like shades of dawn, and all the world is still a stage deep inside the ravensong.

The ravensong remembers all the love you've been denied, all the empty serenades the hypocracy and lies. Still you keep on going, flying through the storm not knowing that the ravensong will one day be your own. But now the song is calling it leads you through the night, it takes you to a darker place in a world devoid of light. There will be no redemption from you world of pain and fear until you start to recognize the meaning of the melody you hear

Listen to the Ravensong it echos through the night
Pulling you in deeper and further from the light.
S R Jordan

As pleasingly gloomy as The Clan of Xymox, sometimes wailing like the Cure, and with the atmospheric pop sensibility of the Moody Blues thrown in, this is a well composed song, and quite hooky. I haven't heard a formula like this and it works. The title and subject has an eerie kind of elan that makes it mysterious, and very appropriate for goth rock. The lyrics fit the mood of the melody well.

I liken the whole idea of the song......
