The Abyss Looks into Me

We've searched the world for truth As we cull the pure, the heart, The good The road twists and turns Vaults howl, mountains burn As we cull, the pure, The heart, the good Eyes burning like fire Eyes burning like the sun We've searched the world for truth As we cull the pure, The heart, the good Glancing over distant space Grey dawn, soul crusade The phoenix hope winds her way Through desert skies Still defying fortunes spite Reviving from ashes and rise The phoenix hope wings her way Through desert skies Eyes burn like fire Eyes burn like the sun When it's time it flies faster Than our minds When it's pure, it's harder to secure When it's good, we're more careful Than we should Trails of memories haunt her When it's time it flies faster Than our minds When it's pure, it's harder to secure When it's good, we're more careful Than we should Trails of memories chase her Still defying fortune's spite Reviving from ashes and rise The phoenix hope wings her way Through desert skies Facing the sun life ignites Fiery dawn soul search The phoenix hope burns away To eternity Still defying fortune's spite Reviving from ashes and rise The phoenix hope renews itself From its remains
