lyrics

See me, the Pariah standing in the firing line
I don’t need, don’t need no Messiah
Telling me that I’ll be fine
I can see blue skies, but for now I’ve gotta brave the rain

I see you, headed for me, nobody there to hold you back
This old play’s getting boring
Beat me till I’m blue and black
I can see sunshine, but for now I’ve gotta brave the storm

I’m more, more than just a number
I’ll take rain and turn it into thunder
Waiting for the moment to shine
I’ve spent days walking on the tightrope
Bloodstains all over my clothes
Waiting for the phoenix to rise
It’s coming up

See me, backed into a corner, should’ve read the warning signs
It’s like breathing under the water
It’s the same all the time
I’ll see the sunrise, but for now I’ve gotta brave the night

I’ve been down lying on the pavement
Fists clenched, looking for a saviour
Wipe the dirt right out of my eyes
It’s felt like my back’s against the ropes
Bloodstains all over my clothes
Waiting for the phoenix to rise
It’s coming up
