My Phoenix

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I memorized the verses And the names of every road Then studying the history saw how badly things can go And I thought you saw it too I swear I learned it all from you But now our home is burning and you don't have a clue From a disappointed son To the city that he loves The flags you wave around have got me wondering [Chorus] My Phoenix My Phoenix If my Phoenix still shines If my Phoenix will rise [Verse 2] If the vision of the Christ My family sees Is my blurry vision's greatest enemy Then I still try to tune it in When I get lonely You know I chase around this desert because I think that's where you'll be Whether high and lifted up Or the dust becoming dust Somehow I'm still in love [Chorus] With my Phoenix My Phoenix My Phoenix still shines My Phoenix will rise
