Phoenix

A beautiful beast with a song to sing
A colorful beast with such beautiful wings
Everlasting heart that shall stop after years
To reborn from its ashes as the story declares

I’ve heard of this beast in fantastic tales
I’ve heard of its tragedy and how it prevailed
I’ve heard of its life and its purity
A beautiful beast of immortality

A beautiful bird that’s one of a kind
Its pictures alone will just blow your mind
A lonely bird that lives to sing for the sun
Until it died again and new life begun
