Firebird
[Verse 1]
We've all taken our lashes (our lashes)
Too many our own fault
Still others entrapped us
And doled out their own marks
We can't change what's been written (been written)
They're indelible scars
But through the wounds in our hands
We can now see the stars
[Chorus]
So let these scars become
Taller than mountains
Rising above the storm, we
Now see further than before
The ashes reignite
Within our gravesites
It's time for your return
Firebird
[Verse 2]
We've all known the betrayal (betrayal)
And the sting still hangs on
But hidden under this veil
Are the roots of the dawn
[Chorus]
So let these scars become
Taller than mountains
Rising above the storm, we
Now see further than before
The ashes reignite
Within our gravesites
It's time for your return
Firebird
[Bridge]
It isn't that the fever's leaving me
It's soaring higher
My hope is rising with the mercury
And it stokes the pyre
Though it will not burn this body
When death had trampled dying
The phoenix will arise
[Chorus]
So let these scars become
Taller than mountains
Rising above the storm, we
Now see further than before
The ashes reignite
Within our gravesites
It's time for your return
Oh, it's time for your return
Firebird
[Outro]
