Ashes Of The Phoenix - Lyrics (Work-in-Progress)

[VERSE 1]
Bleeding heart, aching soul/Waited for you
Lost my mind, tryin’ to hide/Myself from the truth
Realization
Came too late
With your lips, I sealed my fate

[CHORUS]
Blinded by your beautiful lies
A bittersweet... sacrifice.
Took away my life/My light
Left me falling/Into the night

[HOOK]
Thought you’d love me (love me)/  ’Till the end (‘till the end)
Now I know...
It was all pretend. (it was all pretend)

[VERSE 2]
Foolish girl, gave you all/Trusted the descent
Poison kiss, sunk deep within/Passion hid the intent
Unfaithfulness
In all but name
Took my youth, threw it all away

[CHORUS]
[HOOK]

[BRIDGE]
The games/The pain
The suffering/The shame
How could you leave me, with all the blame?
The games/The pain
The suffering/The shame
How could you think, we’d ever be the same?

[CHORUS]
[HOOK]
[REPEAT VERSE 1]

Realization
Came too late (came too late)
With your lips, I sealed (sealed) my fate (i sealed my fate)

Yes/Realization
Came too late (came too late)
With your lips, I sealed (sealed) my fate (i sealed my fate)

[VERSE 3]
Like the  phoenix, burning bright/Reaching the end
Don’t wanna stand, Don’t wanna fight/Nothing left ’ta defend
Out of the ashes
Now I rise (i rise), No need (no need) for tender goodbyes (no tender goodbyes)

Not the fool you thought I’d be
Without you here, I’m finally free...
