| I have seen the smoke block out the sky,
|
| Crash-landed attempts to fly.
|
| While the smell of burning plastic is filling the air.
|
| I’ve been broken into smithereens,
|
| ‘Till my dreams are drenched with gasoline.
|
| Watch it burn until it feels like there is nothing left.
|
| And as I fall I’m whispering a prayer.
|
| Close my eyes & see You there.
|
| Reminding me your love will never die, never die.
|
| I will rise,
|
| and rise again
|
| from the ashes,
|
| like a phoenix
|
| I will rise when the world is burning down around me.
|
| In the light
|
| i’m brought back to life
|
| from the ashes,
|
| like a phoenix
|
| I will rise when the world is burning down around me.
|
| there’s a photograph inside my head
|
| Of a desert wasteland, painted red
|
| But that was then, and i know it’s not over yet.
|
| But then i feel the lift of air beneath me.
|
| Touch my lips, my breath’s returning
|
| at 10, 000 feet You say:
|
| «Just be who you are.»
|
| Then You stamped Your Name across my heart
|
| And held me close inside Your arms
|
| reminding me that love will never die, never die.
|
| BR
|
| We will rise, from the ashes. |
| We will rise, from the ashes. |
