Turbo - The Raven Lyrics

Black bird provokes melancholic and depressing associations
I am obsessed with masochistic satisfaction in self-torture

Self-torture

I am asking myself questions to inflict the greatest pain
And I know the answers to the questions in advance:

"Nevermore"

Mysterious eyes of the raven are increasing my depression
Its answers are driving me mad

[spoken]
"And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted - nevermore!"
[Edgar Allan Poe - The Raven, first published in 1845]
