"The Phoenix"
|
|
|
Put on your war paint
|
|
You are a brick tied to me that's dragging me down
|
Strike a match and I'll burn you to the ground
|
We are the jack-o-lanterns in July
|
Setting fire to the sky
|
Here, here comes this rising tide
|
So come on
|
|
Put on your war paint
|
|
Cross walks and crossed hearts and hope-to-dies
|
Silver clouds with grey linings
|
|
So we can take the world back from a heart attack
|
One maniac at a time we will take it back
|
You know time crawls on when you're waiting for the song to start
|
So dance alone to the beat of your heart
|
|
Hey young blood
|
Doesn't it feel like our time is running out?
|
I'm gonna change you like a remix
|
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix
|
Wearing our vintage misery
|
No, I think it looked a little better on me
|
I'm gonna change you like a remix
|
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix
|
|
Bring home the boys and scrap scrap metal the tanks
|
Get hitched, make a career out of robbing banks
|
Because the world is just a teller and we are wearing black masks
|
"You broke our spirit," says the note we pass
|
|
So we can take the world back from a heart attack
|
One maniac at a time we will take it back
|
You know time crawls on when you're waiting for the song to start
|
So dance alone to the beat of your heart
|
|
Hey young blood
|
Doesn't it feel like our time is running out?
|
I'm gonna change you like a remix
|
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix
|
Wearing our vintage misery
|
No, I think it looked a little better on me
|
I'm gonna change you like a remix
|
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix
|
|
Put on your war paint
|
|
[x4]
|
The war is won
|
Before it's begun
|
Release the doves
|
Surrender love
|
|
(Wave the white flag!)
|
|
Hey young blood
|
Doesn't it feel like our time is running out?
|
I'm gonna change you like a remix
|
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix
|
Wearing our vintage misery

No, I think it looked a little better on me
|
I'm gonna change you like a remix
|
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix

Hey young blood
