Phoenix

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?
