On a day when the world was not awake
I crossed the river and the waters of oblivion
This day all heaven's fell
I want to fly not resurrect
Escape and land in the celestial
Nightfall on my immortal soul
I'm leaving for a new day
As my ashes fall in the meridian

The wings of wonder
A new life arising
Sacrificial arson
From fire to carbon
The ashes crowning
A call to weakness
Escape of the phoenix

On this day the world was not awake
And I stood and had to watch while the heaven's wept
Its rivers
Tried to fly, not resurrect
Threw myself on the stake to burn
And all the lives where I lived and learned
Nothing's sacred in halos
I'll give this crown to the one who follows

The wings of wonder
A new life arising
Sacrificial arson
From fire to carbon
The ashes crowning
A call to weakness
Escape of the phoenix

From ashes to nothing
Could heaven welcome a traitor
We are the sacred ashes
Of her honor
I'm reaching, I'm stretching
To not fall from grace into oblivion
The calling for freedom
Escape of the phoenix

The wings of wonder
A new life arising
Sacrificial arson
From fire to carbon
The ashes crowning
A call to weakness
Escape of the phoenix

The wings of wonder
A new life arising
Sacrificial arson
From fire to carbon
The ashes crowning
A call to weakness
Escape of the phoenix
