lyrics

Sometimes you wonder why nothing‘s going right, thinking all the time while lying awake at night. See, nothing‘s forever, many things get dashed, but before the phoenix can rise there needs to be ash.

Life keeps on changing, nothing stands still. Earth keeps on spinning and yes, I know this life is ill. People come, people go. Those tides will never stop. As well as everthing we love and not.

But disapointment is our everlasting fellow escorting through life, over and over.

Every time I fall, every time I fail, every time I try to be myself and I still can‘t prevail. Still can‘t prepare for the next situation that‘s breaking me down, taking me down, forcing me to lay down the crown, to abdicate the throne of my own mind. My only crime was that I‘m too damn kind, now getting more and more confined. I want to find back to my path, break free. To give myself up to the wind and let it carry me…

Like the ash of everything burned down.

And rise up! Like a phoenix out of it‘s ash, forever anew again.
