Phoenix (But It's Punk Rock)

Lyrics: Jakob Halvorsen/Eemil Otto Henrik Helin Music: Jakob Halvorsen/Eemil Otto Henrik Helin The year is 1991 Birds and people are living together in seemingly perfect harmony 'Til one day a young man catches fire This is "Phoenix" You - you've been knocked down and got up again In the corner, you're surrounded, no defenders Woah, you - you've hid your fury and kept it in But it's time now you ignite and turn to embers Like a phoenix you burst into fire Burn, a thirst and desire You transform, light up in a flash You spread your wings and rise from the ashes Phoenix - you burst into fire Burn, a thirst and desire You transform, light up in a flash You spread your wings and risе from the ashes They gеt you down, but you get up They let you drown, but you don't stop You show them you're a phoenix Woah You - you've seen the truth behind the veil And you know that they're just looking for attention Woah - you, don't let their ruthlessness prevail Oh, it's time now, light your fire for ascension Like a phoenix you burst into fire Burn, a thirst and desire You transform, light up in a flash You spread your wings and rise from the ashes Phoenix - you burst into fire Burn, a thirst and desire You transform, light up in a flash You spread your wings and rise from the ashes They get you down, but you get up They let you drown, but you don't stop You show them you're a phoenix Phoenix - you burst into fire Burn, a thirst and desire You transform, light up in a flash You spread your wings and rise from the ashes Phoenix - you burst into fire Burn, a thirst and desire You transform, light up in a flash You spread your wings and rise from the ashes
