the phoenix - phoenix benjamin lyrics
(… i’m about to sing a song called the phoenix david wrote back in 1975 and i was working on it, and uh, this is it, apparently.)
phoenix is a bird that lives for several thousand years
i light a fire and burn my laughter and my tears
i die an agonizing death so i can be reborn
i rise out from my ashes early in the morn
i lost all my feathers in the fire of ’68
an old love was buried with my jealousy and hate
and the ashes of the man i used to be
i tried to help myself, but i guess it was my fate
i learned my lesson finally, but i guеss it was too late
too late for the man i usеd to be
i’m gonna rise from my ashes and take wing
i’ll put myself together once again and learn to sing
a new song like i never sang before, just wait and see
i’ll rise up my ashes, and be free
i lost all my blood in the battle of ’74
i lay there on my back and watched it run out on the floor
good*bye to the man i used to be; i said good*bye
to the man i used to be
i’m gonna rise from my ashes and take wing
i’ll put myself together once again and learn to sing
a new song like i never sang before, just wait and see
oh, i’ll rise up from my ashes, and be free
i have died a little, if you wanna grow
i learn to forget, if you wanna know
to the man i used to be
to the man i used to be
to the man i used to be
i’m gonna rise up from my ashes and take wing
i’ll put myself together once again and learn to sing
a new song like i never sang before, just wait and see
i’ll rise up from my ashes, and be free
to the man i used to be
to the man i used to be
to the man i used to be
