"Phoenix" lyrics

"Phoenix"

All move so fast here
No one can last here
Lucky for us, dear
'Round and 'round we go

Darling, the turn is resistance
Do you, I do
Forgettin' to follow your instinct
Do you, I do

I will stay for this last transformation
From where we start it soon gets precarious
I will stay for this last transformation
Beauty and tragedy released in the end

Here now we're kneeling
Now we're revealing
Purge every feeling
As we turn to dust

Don't get yourself into mischief
Do you, you don't, do you
Together whatever the distance
To you, I'll come to you

I will stay for this last transformation
Flares in arcs will lead us out to sea
Far above you the stars light the heavens
Beauty and tragedy released in the end

Out in the distance
Blue god encrypted
Phoenix persistent
'Round and 'round we go
