Lyrics

I'm just a loser in the game of love
 I'm just a stray boy in the shade
 And how I wish to know what love is like
 To find someone to contemplate
 There's a voice and a million answers to the questions I don't ask
 A demon, I've got to contain
 When I'm walking through the fen
 Getting deep into the black
 Whispers, I can't restrain
 Don't give in
 ♪
 Rise to fame
 Time will come
 Make your claim
 Time has come
 For the crow to fly away!
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
 So you're an angel meant to walk down here
 And you believe it's all divine
 And you don't play by all those temporal rules
 You watch the world begin to die
 Alright, when the lamb's been torn to pieces
 I've been crashing from the sky
 Fallen to care for the prey
 They put a spoke right in your wheel
 I'm the one to dare the weak
 To push you all over the pain
 You give in, oh
 Rise to fame
 Time will come
 Make your claim
 Time has come
 For the crow to fly away!
 ♪
 I close my eyes, and I see what's coming my way
 Ooh, yeah
 He's got treasure in his eyes that he's gonna turn to clay
 Hm, I'm a stranger
 I'm a changer
 And I'm danger, maybe
 Fallen angel, waiting for the prey
 The devil has come to take a maimed away
 Penetration of the twisted mind
 The evil is out for the weak and blind
 I can feel it in your voice
 Ever so sweet, no
 Do I really have a choice? No, no, no!
 Oh, you burn your feet on unholy ground
 You roam the barren wicked plains abound
 In evil eyes and evil speak
 Abound in all, you evil freaks
 When you say it's all divine and meant to be
 Oh, oh-oh
 What about your flesh and blood, and defiers like me?
 Their evil eyes are looking down on you
 And those who don't are losing sight of you
 Face the rage to chase away
 The specter of disgrace and shame
 Withered roses dying on the ledge
 A withered dreamer standing on the edge
 You dream of love, wake up to pain
 You're better off to join in my game
 She'll be better off to cry, contrite tears
 One day, she'll wonder why she had to let you disappear
 Oh, dear
 Rise to fame (your time has come)
 Time will come (to take the sun)
 Make your claim (you're drawn to the sound)
 Time has come (you're leaving ground)
 Rise to fame (the flight of the crow)
 Time will come (cross the line)
 Time will come
 Your time has come (for the crow to fly away)
 Rise to fame (it's a flight to hell)
 Time will come (can you hear the bell?)
 (Time has come)
 Take your soul away!
 Your time has come (it's a flight to hell)
 Alright!
 I'm a stranger
 I'm a changer
 And I'm danger
 Fallen angel
 Waiting for the prey, ah, mm!
