COUNT RAVEN LYRICS

1. Prediction

The silent one speaks to me about things that has to come
A natural progression, 'cos things they cannot be left undone
I need to talk to you, and you have to listen too!
Just a small piece of prediction, that we must simply go through
Great is the cry over Bosnia, when Ravenna's monster sees the light
Across the Adriatic sea they come in millions and turns the day into night
A massive invasion from the east, the least that you expected to
Not enough power to hold back, when U.N.s crushed and NATO's through

Living in a dream, oh Europe so unaware
Of the ongoing scheme, soon under heavy warfare

Driving the enemy, across the sea, into Italy
Not one city will be spared, on the coastline, from Monaco to Sicily
The Vatican will be destroyed, and Pope John Paul will be no more
He tries to run away but he'll be captured, and killed outside Lyon on St.Lucy's day
The battle rages on into France, sweet Paris will be no more
Far into the future when it's over, the main town will be Avignon
Entire France is soon invaded, by anger and unholy hate
And it's gonna have to swear itself to be a Muslim state
The world stand and stare, they don't understand what's going on
Like the Bosnia affair, too late they saw what was wrong

Mass graves, slaughter, women raped every day
Chemical warfare, smell of bodies that decay
The world has never seen such cruelty before
Still something worse waits to open up the door

The Allies they attack from Belgium, Germany and Hungary
A massive strike of the British, in the Mediterranean sea
They drive them all the way back into those countries where they came from
Finally they have to pay for all the evil that they have done
Many years will have to pass before the ending of the tyranny
The destruction is simply so devastating, a continent will cease to be
Finally the Christian flag is risen in the city of Istanbul
The beast of the east will taste he's own medicine
And they themselves will be ruled

2. Shadow Box

Welcome the future, give us the cancer
A good solution, in fact the answer
Radiation's good for mankind
There is no danger, says Mr. Narrowmind
This is a good decision
Says an over weighted, fat politician
They say that they making amends
Funny religion, dollars and sense

What the hell's the matter with you people
When will you ever learn
This war on the world you cannot see
Day of doom is what you'll learn

The madman of today, destroys the world
And your voice will never be heard
We refuse to see and lie, or commit suicide
No one will ever know how much you've cried
All they care of, is their financial success
But the health of their own children, they couldn't care less

What the...
The real retards

Nature's got us by the throat
We can no longer hide
Time has come to vote
If we shall live or die
God made this dying world I can tell
Still you send it into hell

I sing you this nice lullaby, before you go to bed
To give you some bad conscience, the guilty out of their head
'cos no one's free 'til everyone's free, this I will make you see
Nature's crying for deliverance, start to make it breathe

3. The Loneliest One

This night the stars are closer to the winters moon
I can't understand that the earthlings are still in gloom
I have to ask you a question people!
Do you care about anything at all?

What is running through your mind
When did you leave yourself behind
The beast he will gladly feast
On your soul that you never missed

I can't understand this paradox we're living in
Out here all is clear, while civilization are built in sin
Force them into cages and they tell sweet lies to them
That this is the only world you are living in

Once day you are gonna die
And the beast will be around no more
Your body is cast into the fire
You don't exist any more

You have to realize
You don't even have a life!
The sun comes up every morning
Still it is eternal night

So in the end you have nothing to lose
The signs always been there and as well to choose
And after all has been said and done
Will you remain forever the loneliest one?

4. Fallen Angels

Since creation of human kind
Fallen angels been around
Litter oceans and the skies
Defying life just to die

One world in Humongous need
All denied by demon greed
From the cradle to the grave
You have to work and be their slave

So this is the life?
Joy and sorrow - day and night
The lies goes on and on
To overshadow what Jesus won

Satan fell from the sky
His wingless children multiply
You can change this earthly hell
Yes, you are bound to break the spell
There's no one else to turn to
There's never been no one else
In this world of total loneliness
My sweet Jesus

5. Mountains Spirit

6. The Lie Of Life

I see the children, relieved and they sigh
Friday is here, they are going into town
But you're not really going anywhere tonight
It's just another chapter in the lie of life

A stimulated businessman travels the world
Meeting new cultures and hearing their words
Having a good time but missing the light
It's just another chapter in the lie of life

It seems there is no choosing
It must be a bad dream
Everyone is losing
A massive global scream

I see women raising kids in the suburbs
Doing the best they can in the smallest of worlds
Trapped under the same yoke, that life is just a strife
It's just another chapter in the lie of life

I see the past, inventing in the lie of life
I see the present, nursing the lie of life
I see the future, becoming my lie of life

7. P.S.I. Power

I see through you, and there's more than one side of a human
I see through you, and there is nothing you can do
Doesn't matter what you do, there is no point in scheming
If you think that you can, you are only dreaming
I know everyone's mind
From my best friend to the maddest politician
I wish to leave it behind, but you know it ain't my decision
Everyone has a task, in life, and I know that this is mine
To tell the truth, and expose the thoughts of those who's lying

It is P.S.I. power, your mind has nowhere to hide
I read your mind like an open book, you can never lie

One thing is pride, that's the thing that hold a human together
They change like the tide, every day a new mask
This goes on forever
How can you go on? Even when you know we are fragile
Everyone, will be broken after a while
Facing the sun, and my Father I'm so sick of this lying
United as one, it can never be and I start crying

It is...

How can we believe, with our everyday lying
That we still can achieve
Something when other things we are denying
This theater of pain, which is our everyday occurrence
You should be ashamed, when you know your life expectancy
I see through you, it's P.S.I. power and I know your location
It's alien to you, but you are the alien to the whole creation

It is...

8. Shine

I still don't believe it
It happens every day
The darkest longest story
How long must we pray
I see his eye of madness
I see his eye of stone
Their minds and tongues are rotten
Their counted to be gone
I will shine

The mad ones that are killing
And hiding bodies still
We think that they escaping
But they never will
I see his eye of sadness
I see his eye of stone
His heart and brain's decided
They are counted to be gone
I will shine

They say that I am crazy
And I can't cope with life
But I have a vision
And towards that I stride
One day I can tell you
The pain will come to you
Then you realize
That all I said was true
I will shine!

9. The Divided World

Time will come when all stupidity is gone
Time will come when all the misery is done
Time will tell all the scars that you got, all the why's, and so forth!
Time will tell if it was you and what it was worth, then!
Sooner than you think now baby

Time will come when wars will be no more
Time will come when god knocks on your door
Time will tell if the life that you choose is the life that you wanted?
Time will tell in the questions you asked where they to be granted you!
Sooner than you think now baby

I can see your sorrow
Reading no tomorrow
The golden way is narrow that leads you home
The world has been divided
It has been decided
To separate the right from the eternal wrong's

Don't you know your losing
And yourself abusing
There is a choice in this time that's wrong
It's always been that
Until we've seen that
This is not the place that you belong

10. The Viking Sea

I have a secret place, where I can hide my face.
I'm there as often as I can be.
There I find my space, dissapear without a trace.
Out on the Viking sea.

Been here a thousand years, the spirit is so clear.
You are so precious, and so dear.
Come on along with me, and I will set you free.
Out on the Viking sea.

The old oak trees, the smell of sea breeze.
Guardian against all enemies.
You feel the sacrifice, the earth is alive.
Here Oden has survived.

Those who pass through here, they are not aware.
Of the secret that's laying there.
I watch the sun go down, from the fortress ground.
You are this country's pearl filled crown.

The raven's eye look to the sky, Gods angels they cry.
A nation once so free, now turned into an evil sleep.

The raven speaks to me about the history.
Of a people so proud and free.
Independence here, just defend their dear.
A natural must or disappear.
We gather again, we light the fire and,
We go back to the old ways.
I put down my stone, no longer I'm alone.
The ancestors brought me home
