Raven In The Grave

The Raveonettes Raven In The Grave Lyrics
1.Recharge & Revolt

With a hole in my head I looked for you*
Through the trenches of war the whole world through
My desire to leave with you I just can't constrain

I regret everything I've done so far
When the pillars of love are blown apart
I stumble through the rubble and decay

When I'm terrified I close my eyes
When I'm sad and blue I choose to fight
Heartbreak only can take you to the other side

My impression of you is hard to comprehend
When 2 people have no time to spend
You're the dreamiest girl who ever entered my mind

The bliss I feel knowing you're delirious
Makes me feel oh so imperious
When the longing comes I'll fight it till the end

When all broken dreams are glued back together
And there's nothing to talk about not even the weather
And all rivals are all laid to rest


2.War In Heaven

Wait, a war in heaven

Wait, a war in heaven
I hate it when they forget
To let people live

Wait, a war in heaven
I hate it when they forget
To let people live

Slowly we come
There's blood on the chair
In this tender life


3.Forget That You're Young

And I see you...*
And I know that you're so young.
And I choose you...
And I know that you're so young.
And I need you...
And I know that you're so young.
And I catch you...
And I forget that you're young.

Can I fall awake now?
Can I fall awake now?
Can I fall awake now?
Can I fall awake now?

And I hold you...
And I forget that you're young.
And I kiss you...
And I know that you're so young.
And I need you...
And I forget that you're young.
And I please you...
And I know that you're so young.

And I hurt you...
And I forget that you're young.
And I scare you...
And I forget that you're young.
And I leave you...
And I know that you're so young.
And I miss you...
And I know that you're so young.

Can I fall awake now?
Can I fall awake now?
Can I fall awake now?
Can I fall awake now?
(And I forget that you're young)

And I forget that you're young...


4.Summer Moon

Summer moon, nervous talk
The dark and surf is laughing
August night, we're in love
The silent star is smiling

Years have gone, all have changed
I'm saddened of this triumph
Most of all, the kid would go
This perfect thing is dying

Is it now, go away
A perfect thing was dying
Met with love, missed you so
Tears I taste from crying


5.Let Me On Out

You feel that I have gone too far
You feel that I have gone too far
You feel that I have gone too far
You feel that I have gone too far

I feel that you have done
I feel that you have done times
Good times

And how we loved, and how we tried
And how we fell apart
And how we loved, and how we tried
And how we fell apart

Let me on out, let me on loose
Let me find someone new
Let me on out, let me on loose
Let me find someone new

Make me find someone new


6.Ignite

Take what I want now
Leave the pain with you
Unmoved by heartache
Moved away from you

What if I could run now
What if I could die
What if I could make my heart explode and never cry

I hate what I am now
?? in love
I hate what I have now
You I'm tired of

What if I could run now
What if I could die
What if I could make my heart explode and never cry

What if I could free you
What if you could smile
What if I could make your heart ignite just for a while

What if I could run now
What if I could die
What if I could make my heart explode and never cry

What if I could free you
What if you could smile
What if I could make your heart ignite just for a while

What if I could die now
What if I could go
I always loved alone
I never ever showed


7.Evil Seeds

When you're here
I long for all those things
my eyes would steal like a thief and hide from you

When it rains
on this town and in this heart
I betray the ones I've come to love the most

When I'm down
and most of all I've had
has come to get revenge on all I've done

But I'm sad
and our love is far behind
I long for all that time I spent with you

When I'm gone
Like a raven in the grave
Young lovers sure won't spring from these evil seeds

Play with fire
Play with you sometimes


8.As You Lay Asleep


9.Apparitions

Lyricist:Sune Rose Wagner

In the night, we run around in the streets
Jack up on life in hell
Thunder love has struck us again
Where apparitions are the sinful spell

Elude the harsh reality of our lands
We saw tears and tragedy
Rejoin the back of rebel angels at night
Like apparitions of an infantry

Let's get out of here
Want you to come along
Let's get out of here
Want you to come along

In the sunless days of war
I was a young pilot strewing death
I see tears and frightened eyes
Put them to sleep till I was out of breath

A silhouette of jealousy in the sky
I took revenge on love nightly
I'll take a hard look back someday
And deny war apparitions of sympathy


10.My Times Up

Lyricist:Sune Rose Wagner

My time's up
And don't care
How I feel
I just don't care
I just don't care

When everything dies
Come I'd like to see you
When everything dies
Come I'd like to see you
Come I'd like to see you

Pray that you don't
Meet me all alone
With flashing knives
Here to take a life
Here to take a life

no gleaming lights in the sky now
do you wish that this moment could be yours?
you look so dead, did you ever
rejoice of a young girl in my youth?

No gleaming lights in the sky
Do you wonder
What your life could have been?

No gleaming stars in the sky now
Rejoice
Oh young girl in thy youth

Come with me dear
How I dare you
The oceans will boil
And kill us all
