Eyes of the Dead Lyrics

I am no longer alive
Somewhere along this life I have died inside
My soul has been denied
Rise of the black hearts
We take to the skies
The ravens of omen
We don't go down without a fight
Your grave we dig tonight
With fury and mightWe're freaks and we're outcasts
Unwanted and dumb
We scavenge the land because we were all given to none
And our blood is oneBlack wings spread their ebony quills
Bloody nails the hand that wills
The murder, murder
Wind is at our backs
Murder, murder
Now the crows attack
For once in this life

You'll see through these eyes
Through the eyes of the deadSkies become scorched with feathers and crests
Laughing like jackals and our teeth are sharpened and wet
Black talons claw your chest
Tear at the flesh
Virtues of evil now thrown to the flood
The crows of apocalypse
Dragging your heart through the mud
And our teeth drip bloodBlack wings spread their ebony quills
Bloody nails the hand that wills
The murder, murder
Wind is at our backs
Murder, murder
Now the crows attack
For once in this life
You'll see through these eyes
Through the eyes of the deadWhen the day of reckoning comes
And you cry out "babylon's won"
Eyes so dark, like ink we blacken the sunSo call my name, "Raven"
So fear this name, "Raven"
Hold dear this
You will never fucking break me
I've an army that will strip you to the boneGo!We'll feast on your carrion dreams
Blacken your skies
Shrieking the coldest of screams
Our shadows stand agleamFor we are the dead and we'll rise up and say
Nothing will break us
Nothing will stand in our way
We will seize the day
Little man the worm has turned
Power and respect we've earnedBlack wings spread their ebony quills
Bloody nails the hand that wills
The murder, murder
Wind is at our backs
Murder, murder
Now the crows attack
For once in this life
You'll see through these eyes
Bloody nails
The murder, murder
Murder, murder
For once in this life
You'll see through these eyesFor these are the eyes
That your god denies
So just one last time, see through these eyes
Through the eyes of the dead
Through the eyes of the dead
Through the eyes of the dead
Through the eyes of the dead
The eyes of the dead
