Second verse = Raven talking directly to Ozpin.

Third, fourth, fifth and sixth verses = Raven referring to herself.

Seventh verse = Talking about Ozpin. Ozpin's fate seems to be connected to Salem who is trying to kill him. The more he tries to escape the worst for humanity it is.

Eighth verse = Ozpin's actions revealed by Ruby and her 'mirrored eyes'.

Ninth verse = Talking about Ozpin.

And the rest is the chorus being repeated. OOOOOOoooooohhhhhhh.... veeeeeerrrrryyyy innnntereeeesssssting.

That was the first thing that came to mind when I read your post.

While I agree with most of it, it doesn't explain why Raven disappeared before Summer went on her last mission. Maybe Ozpin gave her the same mission previously, but she flatly refused. Now this doesn't justify abandoning Taiyang and Yang, though that's one plot point that has never been fully explained. Then again, most of the plot hasn't been explained. Maybe we'll get more in Season 4, maybe.
