[Verse 1] I see you over there In the shadows, as you look to all like your just keeping your calm, A unreadable face acting like nothing is wrong. But I can see the spark behind your big blue eyes, The hidden fire of a bottled rage that you just cannot disguise. [Pre-Chorus] You play it cool, you play it straight, But when the moment's right, you seem to hesitate. You have a guarded heart, in your own quiet way, Your Words are left unspoken, but what were they meant to say? [Chorus] Oh Shady raven, you’ are half in, and half out, Caught between the whispers of your sins and your prayers in the form of shouts. You wear your armor, It is made from all of your fears, And it is awfully thick. But i see a crack there, Oh i am starting to get in, So If you dont like it, you better not let your armor slip. [Verse 2] You have learned to stand your ground, while others fearfully away they fly, You say you aint really thst much, but you are a wonder don’t even deny. The world’s a stage, and you are now on cue, You are Not playin' the hero, To your heart you are just stayin’ true. [Pre-Chorus] I see your fleeting grin, Always got a sideways glance, You keep the rhythm, But you never break out in dance. A careful touch, you never show the ache, But I see as you tremble, when i make your world start to quake. [Chorus] Oh Shady raven, you’ are half in, and half out, Caught between the whispers of your sins and your prayers in the form of shouts. You wear your armor, It is made from all of your fears, And it is awfully thick. But i see a crack there, Oh i am starting to get in, So If you dont like it, you better not let your armor slip. [Bridge] Oh Maybe someday soon you will see your own worth And drop the mask, Set fire to the bridges that carry all the pain from your past. But till that day i know you will just be playin’ your part, You will be the quiet defender, Of your broken heart Pre-Chorus] Now They came a knocking And you did some talking. You know that even Jehovah God can befriend a raven like you. But now that they are gone and you see your feathers have grown are you going to sit there in the shadows or do how the bible taught use your earned freedom and fly straight for the moon. [Chorus] Oh Shady raven, you’ are half in, and half out, Caught between the whispers of your sins and your prayers in the form of shouts. You wear your armor, It is made from all of your fears, And it is awfully thick. But i see a crack there, Oh i am starting to get in, So If you dont like it, you better not let your armor slip. [Last verse] Shady raven, the show must go on, The spotlight might fade, but that does not mean that you are ever gone. With your neutral stance, a guarded sigh, You lye In the shadows, till you learn how to have confidence in yourself and you can finally learn how to fly.
