The Phoenix

The Phoenix
Put on your war paint
You are a brick tied to me that’s dragging me down
Strike a match and I’ll burn you to the ground
We are the Jack ‘o Lanterns in July
Setting fire to the sky
Here he comes this rising tides
So come on

Put on your war paint
Crossed marks and crossed hearts
And hope to die
Sue the clouds with red lining
So we can take the world back from the heart attack
One maniac at a time
We will take it back
You know time crawls on
When you’re waiting for the song to start
So dance alone to the beat of your heart
Hey young blood
Doesn’t it feel like our time is running out?
I’m gunna change you like a remix
Then I’ll raise you like a phoenix
Wearing all vintage misery
No, I think it looked a little better on me
I’m gunna change you like a remix
Then I’ll raise you like a phoenix
Bring home the boys
And scrap, scrap metal the tanks
Get hitched
Make a career out of robbing banks
Because the world is just a terror
And we are wearing black masks
So rock our spirits
And you’ll know we’ve passed
Put on your war paint
The war is won
Before it’s begun
Release the doves
Surrender love.
