Phoenix

there was a time
I was broken and burnt
screamed as I begged for mercy
now I'm flying out of the ashes
burning all who come close
it's nothing to be sad about
because I'm not giving up
I'm just walking away
past the everyday bullshit
given all that I had
was treated worthless
doesn't mean I'm gonna stop
i'll always fuck hard
no matter what is done to me
i'm gonna keep staying strong
and maybe people will wonder
probably say I'm fucked in the head
but save your tears for someone else
I'm doing just fine
flying up high in the sky
not thinking of a thing
or worrying
just gone so far away
packed my bags
keeping what I need
holding them close to my heart
looking down at the world
not even shedding a tear
as I watch it burn
