Before The Dawn - Phoenix Rising lyrics

Corroded has became my sword

And weight has gathered into my shield

Nations conquered and enemies slain

Now standing weary on a blood red battlefield

Longing for a rival

Adversary worth the ichor

To gain relief

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/before+the+dawn/phoenix+rising_21051780.html ]

I was storming into my demise

Like Icarus towards the sun

Flames of the empyrium set me on fire

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust

Perpetual circle of life

Behold the golden feathers of phoenix rising

Re-forged has became my blade

And weight was lifted from my shield

Burning kingdoms

Thrones scorched and seared

Tombstones of the fallen that once was feared
