Jake Owen
the raven / the echo
[Verse 1]
Life alone in the reeds
Shallow standards and seeds
Crippled wretch in the mire
Save my soul from the fire
[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm a raven in the dark
Say something, I need You
Ooh, I'm an echo underwater
Say something
[Verse 2]
Prophesy of the grave
Philosophize poise and pain
Sold to social disease
Where beasts and priests roam the streets
[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm a raven in the dark
Say something, I need You
Ooh, I'm an echo underwater
Say something
[Bridge]
Turn the page to the morning
Love wrote the next line
Will you tear my heart from the pieces?
Wolves only feast in the moon
Lift my eyes from the madness
Thrones on the ashes of truth
Give my soul rest
Tomorrow, out of sorrow, moves
[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm a raven in the dark
Say something, I need You
Ooh, I'm an echo underwater
Say something
Ooh, I'm a raven in the dark
Say something, I need You
Ooh, I'm an echo underwater
Say something
[Instrumental Outro]
