Waking in the rubble Walking over glass Neighbors say we’re trouble Well that time has passed Peering from the mirror No, that isn’t me Stranger getting nearer Who can this person be You wouldnt know me at all today From the fading light I fly Rise like a phoenix Out of the ashes Seeking rather than vengeance Retribution You were warned Once I'm transformed Once I’m reborn You know I will rise like a phoenix But you're my flame Go about your business Act as if you’re free Noone could have witnessed What you did to me Cause you wouldn’t know me today And you have got to see To believe From the fading light I fly Rise like a phoenix Out of the ashes Seeking rather than vengeance Retribution You were warned Once I'm transformed Once I’m reborn I rise up to the sky You threw me down but I'm gonna fly And rise like a phoenix Out of the ashes Seeking rather than vengeance Retribution You were warned Once I'm transformed Once I’m reborn You know I will rise like a phoenix But you’re my flame
