Phoenix

(album: Phoenix - 2015)

It would take the rest of me to erase the memories
Out of the fire I survived, I'm burned but I come out alive
You always took the best of me
Until there was nothing left of me
Out of the fire I survived
Out of the ashes, I will rise

And I never needed you to pick up the pieces
You can just leave them
And I never needed you to be someone I could ever believe in

But somewhere down the road I fell a little too hard, grew a little too cold
And now my heart hurts a little too much
But I'll fight to hold myself up
Somewhere down the line I let you knock me down one too many times
I've had enough, I'll be fine
It'll be you who falls apart this time

You're standing in my room
So scared I couldn't move
There was no one else to blame
Firework exploded flame

And I never needed you to pick up the pieces
You can just leave them
And I never needed you to be someone I could ever believe in

But somewhere down the road I fell a little too hard, grew a little too cold
And now my heart hurts a little too much
But I'll fight to hold myself up
Somewhere down the line I let you knock me down one too many times
I've had enough, I'll be fine
It'll be you who falls apart this time

Cause I'll be the match that starts the fire
My flame will burn bright, go strong and high
When your walls fall down and your whole world crashes
You'll be the one standing in the ashes
