I’m burning from the inside out
All of my emotions filling up the bottle
It just takes a little heat before I go up in flames
Everyone thinks the fire kills but watch me prove them wrong
First come the pain of death
Then the flames encase me, burn me up
Next comes my new skin of ash
And like a Phoenix I will rise again
They always told me to find a light in the dark
But I got tired of waiting for it to show up
No one seemed to be coming here
So I became the light I needed
First comes the pain of death
Then the flames encase me, burn me up
Next comes my new skin of ash
And like a phoenix I will rise again
Some days it seem too dark for me
That shadow hovering over my head
I get lost
I get scared
I’m not sure of who I’m meant to be
I feel the pain as if I were dying
I feel how my insides burn brighter and hotter than the sun
Soon I’m covered in the warm ash of the past
And then I rise again
I am the light I always needed and like a phoenix, I will rise again
