I am a wreck I am a slave There is a curtain That keeps me away All of that time I was the stage With you on my back And stuck But you can't take this song away from me No you can't take this song away from me My eyes become dry I'm crying a month The deeper the well The more I become You toss me aside You need a new drug But I was the only thing stable You can't take this song away from me No you can't take this song away from me For I'm the Phoenix Rise from the ashes For I'm the Phoenix Rise from the darkness Deep in the dark I find relief Debilitated by all of my grief My hand on my heart I roll up my sleeve I rise from the dead and the ashes You can't take this song away from me No you can't take this song away from me For I'm the Phoenix Rise from the ashes For I'm the Phoenix Rise from the darkness And out of the fire I'll rise again (I'll rise again) For I'm the Phoenix Rise from the ashes I am no longer the victim And you, you are no longer responsible I am no longer the servant And you are no longer my master And I am no longer the apple And you are no longer the snake For I'm the Phoenix Rise from the darkness For I'm the Phoenix Rise from the darkness And out of the fire I'll rise again For I'm the Phoenix Rise from the darkness
