Phoenix

Ever since I was young they looked down on me
Using words as your weapons shooting aimlessly
Every bullet through my chest built the armor I wear
Still everyday

They try to bury my head in the ground
Hold me under until I drown
So bathe me in fire I'll rise from the ashes
Tie me to the post I'll grin through the lashes

Spare me your apologies
I have no sympathy (sympathy)
Your walls surround me, wrap me in helix
But I will break through
I am the Phoenix

It wasn't always easy, but I'm still here
Living proof that courage is born from fear
So embrace every shot, every wound, let it fuel the flame
Make them curse your name

They try to bury my head in the ground
Hold me under until I drown
So bathe me in fire I'll rise from the ashes
Tie me to the post I'll grin through the lashes

Spare me your apologies
I have no sympathy (sympathy)
Your walls surround me, wrap me in helix
But I will break through
I am the Phoenix

I've wasted half a life I'm done
Listening to the words they say
I'll rise above the rest
Nothing can hurt me I'm numb from the pain

I've wasted half a life I'm done
Listening to the words they say
I'll rise above the rest
Nothing can hurt me I'm numb from the pain

They try to bury my head in the ground
Hold me under until I drown
So bathe me in fire I'll rise from the ashes
Tie me to the post I'll grin through the lashes

Spare me your apologies
I have no sympathy (sympathy)
Your walls surround me, wrap me in helix
But I will break through

Spare me your apologies
I have no sympathy (sympathy)
Your walls surround me, wrap me in helix
But I will break through
I am the Phoenix
