Nevermore

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I know you don't exist

But last night I beheld your face

Is that you?

Is that you?

I know you don't exist

All your advice was forged by myself

But is that you?

Is that you?

In vain I fought at crossroads with your lies

In vain I came up with those helpless alibis

I know, I know, you don't exist

I know, I know, you don't exist

Mr. Nevermore

Soon you'll be walking down

The alleys of my dreams

Yes, I'm Nevermore

Rubbing your hands in glee and making plans

For Nevermore

Ceaselessly going 'round inside my head

And scornfully you're whispering into my ear

I know, I know, I know, I don't exist, my dear

Still in this ambush of unlikelyhood

I'm hiding, well prepared for intervention

It's me

Yes, it's me

And when you're tired, I'm awake

You hear my laughs just before you close your eyes

It's me

Yes, it's me

I never sleep, I never let you be

Some call it karma, some call it destiny

Your doors are safely locked but I hold the keys

My friends inside are legion waiting for their release

I am Nevermore

Soon I'll be walking down

The alleys of your dreams

I'm Nevermore

Rubbing my hands in glee and making plans

Forever more

Ceaselessly going 'round inside your head

And it's my greatest pleasure to whisper in your ear

I know, I know, I know, I don't exist, my dear

I am Nevermore

Soon I'll be walking down

The alleys of your dreams

I'm Nevermore

Rubbing my hands in glee and making plans

Forever more

Ceaselessly going 'round inside your head

And it's my greatest pleasure to whisper in your ear

I know, I know, I know, I don't exist, my dear
