The Lonely Phoenix
The Lonely Phoenix
At the top of the frozen mountain
My soul rests near the youth fountain
Are you here to rescue me?
Or to give me more distress?
Catch me falling down.
Build me from the ground
I am your phoenix
I burn to ashes
Are you with me after all?
When the air is going thin
Are you worth the struggle and fall?
Will you be there when I sin?
Could this be what it seems?
A beautiful nightmare?
Could this be an ugly dream?
Or just a pleasant take care?
I fly away into the sky hoping for love and clarity
I cry away the night dying, as all I find is fear and vulgarity.
I hear the haunted voices calling
My time is now and I can’t keep stalling
I can’t find any light
I am your phoenix
And when I die,
I will rise again.
