Phoenix


Time’s not the villain
Coming up behind you is a marigold sun
Love if you’re willing take a little more time

I smell fire
It’s coming from the flames that are dancing on my wings
I’m a bird on a wire
Killing time

Fever’s got me shaking
It rises up like a road to meet me
Fever’s got me quaking
Like san andreas fault

Just put a cloth to my brow
I’ll soar like a phoenix from the ashes
Put a pretty blanket down
I’m ready now

Looking for forgiveness
Looking in every cupboard in every room
I’m bearing witness
To the passing time

But the clock is ticking
Like an old man singing at the top of his lungs
And the light is flickering
We’re running out
Fever’s got me shaking
It rises up like a road to meet me
Fever’s got me quaking
Like san andreas fault

Just put a cloth to my brow
I’ll soar like a phoenix from the ashes
Put a pretty blanket down
I’m ready now

Everybody’s looking for somebody to blame
The stages of sadness how many can you name
I stopped at anger, never felt the same

They say it’ll fade my scars
My tears will dry and i’ll lie under
The stars again, not wondering where you are

Fever’s got me shaking
It rises up like a road to meet me
Fever’s got me quaking
Like san andreas fault

Just put a cloth to my brow
I’ll soar like a phoenix from the ashes
Put a pretty blanket down
I’m ready now

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
