Phoenix Cry

Lyrics: Selene Moray Music: Selene Moray Arranger: Selene Moray Midnight shadows claw my skin Whispers drown beneath the din They said "know your place and kneel" But these tired bones remember steel Footprints fade in pouring rain Every scar a battle stain Oh-oh, the fire's breathing low Oh-oh, where broken embers glow One spark against the void Watch me burn! From the ashes I return! No more bridges left to turn This is where the phoenix cries! Watch me rise! With the thunder in my eyes! Bare my soul to screaming skies This is how the phoenix flies! Fingers trace the cracks in stone Build my throne from what they've thrown Chains that bound me turn to wings Hear the liberation sing! Bloodied knuckles grip the dawn All my fears are being drawn Oh-oh, the storm is in my veins Oh-oh, I wear my hurricane Unbreakable alloy Watch me burn! From the ashes I return! No more bridges left to turn This is where the phoenix cries! Watch me rise! With the thunder in my eyes! Bare my soul to screaming skies This is how the phoenix flies! When the silence eats your name When the darkness plays its game Dig your nails into the flame! Scream until the world rearranges! I am not your sacrifice! Watch me burn! From the ashes I return! Molten gold in every vein This is where the phoenix reigns! Watch me rise! Through the funeral pyre! Born of fury, forged in fire This is how we steal the light! Fly! Fly! (Shatter the sky!) Fly! (Shatter the sky!)
