Rise Like a Phoenix

Waking in the rubble

Walking over glass

Neighbours say we're trouble

Well, that time has passed

Peering from the mirror

No, that isn't me

A stranger getting nearer

Who can this person be?

You wouldn't know me at all today

From the fading light I fly

Rise like a phoenix out of the ashes

Seeking rather than vengeance, retribution

You were warned

Once I'm transformed

Once I'm reborn

You know I will rise like a phoenix

But you're my flame

Go about your business

Act as if you're free

No one could have witnessed what you did to me

'Cause you wouldn't know me today

And you have got to see to believe

From the fading light I fly

Rise like a phoenix out of the ashes

Seeking rather than vengeance, retribution

You were warned

Once I'm transformed

Once I'm reborn

I rise up to the sky

You threw me down, but

I'm gonna fly

And rise like a phoenix out of the ashes

Seeking rather than vengeance, retribution

You were warned

Once I'm transformed

Once I'm reborn

You know I will rise like a phoenix

But you're my flame
