[Intro]
[Verse]
The moon is hungry and the timber is cold
A restless spirit within a silver mold
I paced the border where the shadows play
Chasing a dawn that felt so far away
My own reflection was a snarling ghost
The bitter rival that I feared the most
Locked in a struggle with a jagged tooth
Hunting for mercy and a drop of truth
[Pre-Chorus]
Then the sky ignited with a crimson wing
I heard the melody only a goddess could sing
A vibrant flicker in the hollow of night
Drawing the predator toward the holy light
[Chorus]
She is the hearth where my heavy heart rests
The golden courage inside of my chest
With a gaze like embers and a soul so deep
She is the promise that I mean to keep
In her radiant kingdom I finally belong
Her gentle grace is what makes me strong
The only map to a world so bright
My beautiful Phoenix, my beacon of light
[Verse]
But the wind turned cruel and the fire went gray
The sun surrendered and she drifted away
Now the smoke is freezing in the vacant air
I am a nomad lost in cold despair
Without her anthem to quiet the beast
The hunger rises for a savage feast
I wander the ruins of a burnt out dream
Nothing is ever as calm as it seem
[Pre-Chorus]
I watch the pyre where the gray dust lies
Praying for wings to reclaim the skies
Waiting for sparks to return to the black
To bring the warmth of my sanctuary back
[Chorus]
She is the hearth where my heavy heart rests
The golden courage inside of my chest
With a gaze like embers and a soul so deep
She is the promise that I mean to keep
In her radiant kingdom I finally belong
Her gentle grace is what makes me strong
The only map to a world so bright
My beautiful Phoenix, my beacon of light
[Chorus]
Step with caution through the tangled wood
I have forgotten how to be good
The monster is waking since her glow is gone
I am the terror that waits for the dawn
Until she rises from the velvet ash
Avoid the strike and the sudden flash
For without her love to hold the line
A dangerous darkness is all that is mine
[Outro]
