Reveille - The Phoenix lyrics

rate me

The phoenix, no longer a myth So strike a match and watch it burn Our destination's rigor mortis Cause nobody listens and nobody learns And your world rejects my kind And those words have lost their touch And this place has lost its mind So now I wanna burn it up Humility, is based on trust But ignorance and arrogance rule the grounds So ashes to ashes and dust to dust And now I wanna burn this whole-place-down Leashed, cuffed, locked and hooked Blow it down, tear it down, burn it down Blackmail- come take it to a whole new level Motherfucker, I can't wait 'till I can watch you drown And you place our trust in you Reassure us that we're not to blame But the tables turn and we're the first to burn Now I could never look at you the same [chorus] So take your word and shove it Come take your deal and shove it Just take the lie and shove it I know what you really are The school in which we learn is the fire in which we'll burn The school in which we learn Is the fire in which we-will-burn
