Battered by the winds in this desolate place
I'm drivin' against the ice that whips across my face
When all of the howling screams sent my way
Let me know that things will be better one day
Well, paradise lost paradise never was
Whoa, I'm all alone on this land of forgotten souls
How can it have possibly come to this?
The struggle to survive winter's frozen kiss
Oh, things have got to change
Well, I said things have got to change
Oh, we need to make a change
Well, won't you help me make a change?
I'm a phoenix flyin' high
Iron fists won't hold me down, I'm soarin' far and wide
Look at yourselves, oh, blinded by my light
Well, out of the ashes, watch my flame burn bright
I'm a phoenix flyin' high
Iron fists won't hold me down, I'm soarin' far and wide
Well, look at yourselves, blinded by my light
Well, I'm a phoenix flyin' high, I know I'll be alright
Fallen, broken, and beaten
Well, but I'm strong when I'm not defeated
Holdin' out for the future
Well, nothin' dries sooner than tears
Fallen, broken, and beaten
Well, but I'm strong, and I'm not defeated
Holdin' out for the future
Well, nothin' dries sooner than tears
I'm a phoenix flyin' high
Iron fists won't hold me down, I'm soarin' far and wide
Look at yourselves, oh, blinded by my light
Out of the ashes, watch my flame burn bright (oh)
I'm a phoenix flyin' high
Iron fists won't hold me down, I'm soarin' far and wide
Look at yourselves, oh, blinded by my light
Well, I'm a phoenix flyin' high, I know I'll be alright
Oh, things have got to change
Well, I said things have got to change
Oh, we need to make a change
Won't you help me make a change?
