nevermore

Venom

Midnight dreary, bleak december
Saintly days of yore
Suddenly a rapping, tapping
At my chamber door
Open wide entering darkness
Mystery explore
Only stillness silent terror
Whispered word lenore

Nevermore
Nevermore
For the lost lenore

Then a rapping gentle tapping
Stately bird of yore
Prophet still or bird or devil
Tell me I implore
Respite, respite nepenthe
Lamplight gloating o er
Never flitting, still is sitting
Night s plutonian shore

Nevermore
Nevermore
For the lost lenore
Nevermore (Nevermore)

Grim ungainly, ghastly gaunt
Tempest s raging shore
On the pallid, bust of pallas
Eyes of blackest core
All the seeming, of a demon
Sorrow laden bore
Unmerciful, ancient raven
Not the lost lenore

Nevermore
Nevermore
For the lost lenore
Nevermore, Nevermore, Nevermore, Nevermore
Nevermore, Nevermore, Nevermore
