lyrics
-verse1-
picture that we're both sane
trust these instincts again
our bodies lost in pain
black and red painted chains
but who'd have predicted this
never fled here worried
each evening we'd be born
but we'd die each morning
-chorus-
a phoenix
rose up from the sandbox
-verse2-
pit of this stomach burns
as charred feathers fall slow
floats through heaps of those dreams
hearts would never follow
supernatural thoughts
a big booze-induced trance
chase perfection for just
seconds of transcendence
-chorus-
a phoenix
rose up from the sandbox
-verse3-
too crushed to touch
true love's too much
rushed off in cuffs
is once enough?
smoke, wind and sin
in anything
wine glass half filled
pleads for meaning
feeds our belief in
this freedom demon
keep cutting feeling
til we see bleeding
alcohol floods for miles
roads paved in flames while
we're tossed into the wild
just flying while on fire
-outro chorus-
in hell, a bluebird's song
means more over the phone
we'd lay awake for days
listen in on dial tones
I'm a vulture on fire
dead rose in desert sand
through this breeze I'm reborn
as ashes in a wasteland
picture that we're both sane
trust these instincts again
our bodies lost in pain
black and red painted chains
but who'd have predicted this
never fled here worried
each evening we'd be born
but we'd die each morning
-chorus-
a phoenix
rose up from the sandbox
-verse2-
pit of this stomach burns
as charred feathers fall slow
floats through heaps of those dreams
hearts would never follow
supernatural thoughts
a big booze-induced trance
chase perfection for just
seconds of transcendence
-chorus-
a phoenix
rose up from the sandbox
-verse3-
too crushed to touch
true love's too much
rushed off in cuffs
is once enough?
smoke, wind and sin
in anything
wine glass half filled
pleads for meaning
feeds our belief in
this freedom demon
keep cutting feeling
til we see bleeding
alcohol floods for miles
roads paved in flames while
we're tossed into the wild
just flying while on fire
-outro chorus-
in hell, a bluebird's song
means more over the phone
we'd lay awake for days
listen in on dial tones
I'm a vulture on fire
dead rose in desert sand
through this breeze I'm reborn
as ashes in a wasteland
