Lyrics
Phoenix Wind
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Time is just a number, it takes you by the hand
And descending like the shepherd dog buried in the sand
Your magnet eyes move fluid in my veins
A Phoenix wind is murdering the planes
I kinda feel like, a wind is coming soon
I kinda feel like, the clock is well past doom
The other face of, illusion not as weak
Has been revealed by, the tricks of all asleep
When they said when they said your mind could get better
Was a bulb above your head
No more trivial wagers you could turn the tables
Not a single page was read
When they said when they said life would get better
If we?
And the hardest winds and the flattest roads
Were the only ones ahead
I kinda feel like, a wind is coming soon
I kinda feel like, the clock is well past doom
The other face of, illusion not as weak
Has been revealed by, the tricks of all asleep
Nothing's as it seems, nightmares are healing your dreams
Nothing's as it seems, when your nightmares are healing your dreams
Healing your dreams
Nothing's as it seems, nightmares are healing your dreams
Nothing's as it seems, when your nightmares are healing your dreams
