Phoenix Shall Rise
Burn burn day by day,
Sleepless nights too swayed away..
Mocked faces and faked smiles,
Broken heart, mind fragile..
Pretentious walls of being alive,
Flags of compromise waving high
But somewhere to the soul's soul
This secret is well known,
That when the time comes
Phoenix shall rise...
From his own ashes to survive..
Flapping the wings of fire,
Raising his head high,
Taking a swing with fearless swirl
Looking at the timid small world
Phoenix shall rise again..
Phoenix shall survive,
Till he meets his vicious fate
To ask the questions,
To erase the ominous slate,
To burn the skies
And heavens and earth
To remind them the ashes
Of unfortunate bygone..
Phoenix shall rise again..
Phoenix shall survive...
