Phoenix

Spent all these years
Inside my mind
A lonely place
I cannot hide
Isolated, Obsolete
The lows, the highs
The feeling bleak
No-one can see
Over the fence
I shut them out
It's too intense
They don't deserve
The swirling storm
So put that lid back on

I'll keep this
A secret
No need to share it with the world
I'll keep this
Weakness
Hidden under covers 'til
I'm back in the zone
And from the ashes
Rise the phoenix
To reclaim the throne

I try to find
The middle path
I'm up and down
The aftermath
Of this extreme
Leave them reeling
And second guessing
What has passed
Cycling fast
No escape
From who I am until I break
The mania
And depression
I'll keep it locked up 'til it's gone

I'll keep this
A secret
No need to share it with the world
I'll keep this
Weakness
Hidden under covers 'til
I'm back in the zone
And from the ashes
Rise the phoenix
To reclaim the throne

I'll keep this
A secret
No need to share it with the world
I'll keep this
Weakness
And how it chills me to the bone
And from the ashes
Rise the phoenix
To reclaim the throne
