Phoenix

I got nothing but the clock to prove you wrong Let the hand hit the top, I'm moving on But Time comes along with a robe and scythe To cut down the ladders I devise He said I'm mostly the lead never turned to gold And the thoughts I mistake for the sacred stone Were stolen without settling the price They're falling to pieces before my eyes Hey, won't you stay But this call to adventure is calling my name As I wake up again With my hands to my face And the colors all screaming I'll keep my hands up, keep my shadow sharpened Keep my wits even if the ax is falling I got nothing but a mask I thought I owned Now I can't seem to figure out who's the mold The Maker's the top of my altar space He's closing the lock of this coffin cage He's singing Hey, won't you stay But this call to adventure is calling my name As I wake up again With my hands to my face And the colors all screaming I'll keep my hands up, keep my shadow sharpened Keep my wits even if the ax is falling The ax is falling I'm not afraid to be the monster I know I could be You can call it destiny, but I cut my own trail between the trees Tell you my little secret You won't be my weakness And regret only brews resentment So drink the last full glassful You ate the apple, that's cool But now it's time to take out the trash you collected here I got nothing but the clock to prove you wrong Let the hand hit the top, I'll be moving on When the time strikes again will I burst in flames Dust off all the ashes and fly away Keep my hands up, keep my shadow sharpened Keep my wings out when the sky is falling The sky is falling I'm not afraid to be the bastard I know I can be You can call it destiny, but I cut my own trail between the trees Tell you my little secret You won't be my weakness And regret only brews resentment So drink the last full glassful You ate the apple, that's cool But now it's time to take out the trash you collected here Keep my hands up, keep my shadow sharpened Keep my wings out when the sky is falling Keep my hands up, keep my shadow sharpened Keep my wings out when the sky is falling
