The Phoenix Rising

This dream is mine and I’m never gonna let go
Pass over the torch and let me light the pyre
Take a deep breath, the smoke filling up my lungs
Ashes coat my throat as heat scorches along my skin

I want to drown this misery
I want to run away from here
I want to climb until my legs can no longer support me

This dream is mine and I’m never gonna let go
Pass over the torch and let me light the pyre
Take a deep breath, the smoke filling up my lungs
Ashes coat my throat as heat scorches along my skin

This present needs to disappear
This past to fade from memory
This future in my head come into being before my eyes

This dream is mine and I’m never gonna let go
Pass over the torch and let me light the pyre
Take a deep breath, the smoke filling up my lungs
Ashes coat my throat as heat scorches along my skin

Fight for the only chance left
Scream at the burn of defeat
Stand up, shake off my skin, and start it all over again

This dream is mine and I’m never gonna let go

Pass over the torch and let me light the pyre
Take a deep breath, the smoke filling up my lungs
Ashes coat my throat as heat scorches along my skin
