Burn No More

Lost all reason, lost all voice
Paralysed by the fear of choice
Put my head down
Kept my clouded eyes on the ground
Tried and I failed to gain some kind of weight
Tore and pulled punches, threw me in the dirt
Whispered words in my ear to make it harder, I still fight

But now here I stand
I'll fight through your fear
Disturbing my own reflection
I'm cutting the strings, taking command

I shed my skin, gone through fires of change
Making ground wasn't easy but I'm at the core
This phoenix won't burn no more

In the corner, all wound up
Feeling too small to make a sound
Your hand on my head
Left me chills down my spine
Tracing my footsteps, I see them go round
Deeper and deeper when you dug the ground
I was nothing, you made sure that was stuck in my mind

Now I see it clear
I'm done with the how you fear
I can see my reflection
I have risen, I am here

I shed my skin, gone through fires of change
Making ground wasn't easy but I'm at the core
This phoenix won't burn no more
Making ground wasn't easy but I'm at the core
This phoenix won't burn no more

I shed my skin, gone through fires of change
Making ground wasn't easy but I'm at the core
This phoenix won't burn

'Cause I brush the ashes off my skin and now
Finding peace, realizing that I am the core
This phoenix won't burn no more
No more
