Escape of the Phoenix

On a day when the world was not awake I crossed the river and the waters of oblivion This day all heavens fell I wanna fly not resurrect Escape and land in the celestial Nightfall on my immortal soul I'm leaving for a new day As my ashes fall in the meridian The wings of wonder A new life arising Sacrificial arson From fire to carbon The ashes crowning A call to weakness Escape of the phoenix On this day the world was not awake And I stood and had to watch while the heavens wept It's rivers Tried to fly, not resurrect Threw myself on the stake to burn And all the lives where I lived and learned Nothing's sacred in halos I'll give this crown to the one who follows The wings of wonder A new life arising Sacrificial arson From fire to carbon The ashes crowning A call to weakness Escape of the phoenix From ashes to nothing Could heaven welcome a traitor? We are the sacred ashes Of her honor I'm reaching, I'm stretching To not fall from grace into oblivion The calling for freedom Escape of the phoenix The wings of wonder A new life arising Sacrificial arson From fire to carbon The ashes crowning A call to weakness Escape of the phoenix The wings of wonder A new life arising Sacrificial arson From fire to carbon The ashes crowning A call to weakness Escape of the phoenix
