Reborn Through a Phoenix
I was as one dead, just walking alone
No feeling, drive, or compassion
Color had escaped all through the world
Shades of grey had become full fashion
Wind was all I could feel
Roads cold, desolate, and barren
Biding my time until the end came
Hardly at all did I come close to caring
You came in fire, blazing and hot
Shining with light, I would not see
Living in shadow I could not contend
What this fiery illumination from you may be
Your touch was warm but did not burn
I soon felt life in my veins
Color returned to the hue of my skin
Strength in my step, I no longer felt shame
A creature of mystical fire fell upon me
Bringing new life wherever she lay
Reborn through a phoenix igniting my soul
I saw the sun rise at the start of the day
No longer dead but one so alive
A bright spectrum now ran through my world
Brought back from death and the verge of abyss
The fiery light came from one single girl
No feeling, drive, or compassion
Color had escaped all through the world
Shades of grey had become full fashion
Wind was all I could feel
Roads cold, desolate, and barren
Biding my time until the end came
Hardly at all did I come close to caring
You came in fire, blazing and hot
Shining with light, I would not see
Living in shadow I could not contend
What this fiery illumination from you may be
Your touch was warm but did not burn
I soon felt life in my veins
Color returned to the hue of my skin
Strength in my step, I no longer felt shame
A creature of mystical fire fell upon me
Bringing new life wherever she lay
Reborn through a phoenix igniting my soul
I saw the sun rise at the start of the day
No longer dead but one so alive
A bright spectrum now ran through my world
Brought back from death and the verge of abyss
The fiery light came from one single girl
