Phoenix

Battered by the winds in this desolate place
 I'm drivin' against the ice that whips across my face
 When all of the howling screams sent my way
 Let me know that things will be better one day
 Well, paradise lost paradise never was
 Whoa, I'm all alone on this land of forgotten souls
 How can it have possibly come to this?
 The struggle to survive winter's frozen kiss
 Oh, things have got to change
 Well, I said things have got to change
 Oh, we need to make a change
 Well, won't you help me make a change?
 I'm a phoenix flyin' high
 Iron fists won't hold me down, I'm soarin' far and wide
 Look at yourselves, oh, blinded by my light
 Well, out of the ashes, watch my flame burn bright
 I'm a phoenix flyin' high
 Iron fists won't hold me down, I'm soarin' far and wide
 Well, look at yourselves, blinded by my light
 Well, I'm a phoenix flyin' high, I know I'll be alright
 Fallen, broken, and beaten
 Well, but I'm strong when I'm not defeated
 Holdin' out for the future
 Well, nothin' dries sooner than tears
 Fallen, broken, and beaten
 Well, but I'm strong, and I'm not defeated
 Holdin' out for the future
 Well, nothin' dries sooner than tears
 I'm a phoenix flyin' high
 Iron fists won't hold me down, I'm soarin' far and wide
 Look at yourselves, oh, blinded by my light
 Out of the ashes, watch my flame burn bright (oh)
 I'm a phoenix flyin' high
 Iron fists won't hold me down, I'm soarin' far and wide
 Look at yourselves, oh, blinded by my light
 Well, I'm a phoenix flyin' high, I know I'll be alright
 Oh, things have got to change
 Well, I said things have got to change
 Oh, we need to make a change
 Won't you help me make a change?
