Phoenix

Wanted you to love me like you need me
But you won't
You're so cold
Tried to light a fire but you had no desire
To grow
So alone

Heart of ice your love ran cold
Reclaim my life and leave you frozen
When I ignite don't get too close
I come alive and I turn golden

Like a Phoenix
I rise from ash break through the ceiling
Forget my past because I been healing
Ah yea my heart was cold
But now boy it ain't no more
I'm a Phoenix

We were never seeing eye to eye
It got old
So old
Tried to light a fire but you had no desire
To grow
So alone

Watch me spread out my wings, yea
I fly like a bird, I know, I know
This flame's burning higher and higher
Yea no one make it burn low
You put the salt in the cut, yea
I put my hand in the fire but we
Never thought we'd blow up
Had to leave you in the dust

Heart of ice your love ran cold
Reclaim my life and leave you frozen
When I ignite don't get too close
I come alive and I turn golden

Like a Phoenix
I rise from ash break through the ceiling
Forget my past because I been healing
Ah yea my heart was cold but now boy it ain't no more
I'm a Phoenix

Like a Phoenix
I rise from ash break through the ceiling
Forget my past because I been healing
Ah yea my heart was cold but now boy it ain't no more
I'm a Phoenix

Oh how you used to hold me
You told me that you loved me
I thought that I could break down your walls
I tried to keep you warm but
You never melted for me
Now thanks to you I'm better than I ever was
Because
I've risen from the ashes that you left me in

Like a Phoenix
I rise from ash break through the ceiling
Forget my past because I been healing
Yea your heart was cold and you ain't had no feeling
Now I rise like a Phoenix

Like a Phoenix
Yea I rise like a Phoenix
I rise from ash break through the ceiling
You know I'll break through the ceiling
Forget my past because I been healing
Ah yea my heart was cold but now boy it ain't no more
I'm a Phoenix
