Wolf & Raven (remake 2008) Songtext
von Sonata Arctica

Grant me a wish, my master, take heed of me
I have been loyal servant, heartfelt, humble
Gave up what belongs to me, gave up my greed
My self-examination made me see to be me

I am now like Judas, done
Ashamed of what I′ve become
Fear for life I wear as a ring
To bask in your favor, I will kill the king

You say I am invincible, I cannot die
I know but anyway the words, they maim me
Grant me a wish, my master, compassion, please
I'd like to be a human (maybe one day)

I am now like Judas, done
Ashamed of what I′ve become
Fear for life I wear as a ring
To bask in your favor, I will kill the king


Entreaty, let me go
Master, I hate you so
How can I sleep my nights
When my whole being cries?

I tried to be like everyone, open my soul
But what I had to give resulted loathing
Enchanted by the power, licked by the grace
One beautiful black flower, the end of the human race

With pride now face my faith
King and Queen now lie slain
Fear for life I wear as a ring
I bask in your favor, I have killed the king

Entreaty, let me go
Master, I hate you so
How can I sleep my nights
When my whole being cries?

I had a nightmare, the wolf eating the raven
Entrails of life on my plate and I ate them

Interested in what I see
Try that Rorschach test on me
Have you seen the beauty of an enticing beast?


Entreaty, let me go
Master, I hate you so
How can I sleep my nights
When my whole being cries?

Entreaty, let me go
Master, I hate you so
How can I sleep my nights
When my whole being cries?
