Eurovision Song Contest 2014 - Austria: Conchita Wurst - Rise Like A Phoenix lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Waking in the rubble, walking over glass

Neighbors says we're trouble, well, the time has past

Peering from the mirror, no, that isn't me

A stranger getting nearer, who can this person be?

(Pre-Chorus)

You wouldn't know me at all today

From the fading light I fly

(Chorus)

Rise like a phoenix out of the ashes

Seeking rather than vengeance retribution

You were warned, once I'm transformed

Once I’m reborn, you know I will rise like a phoenix

But you're my flame

(Verse)

Go about your business, act as if you’re free

Noone could have witnessed what you did to me

(Pre-Chorus)

Cause you wouldn’t know me today and you have got to see

To believe, from the fading light I fly

(Chorus)

Rise like a phoenix out of the ashes

Seeking rather than vengeance retribution

You were warned, once I'm transformed

Once I’m reborn, you know I will rise like a phoenix

But you're my flame

(Interlude)

I rise up to the sky

You threw me down but

I'm gonna fly

(Chorus)

And I rise like a phoenix out of the ashes

Seeking rather than vengeance retribution

You were warned, once I'm transformed

Once I’m reborn, you know I will rise like a phoenix

But you're my flame
