Revive The Phoenix 04:37
lyrics
buy track
We've seen brighter skies We've seen better days Rebuild today Revive within this day We've seen the darkest skies We've bled from crooked lies Find the spark; Ignite change What do you know about sacrifice? What do you know about loyalty? For years I've let my afflictions drag me down You're still digging the knife down my back You're Dead to me, you still have the nerve To show your face and smile So far in denial The time has come to separate those Those who once stood by my side From those who hide in false friendship No longer wasting my time searching for those who never cared So far from where I want to be Losing sight of my reality Im Slowly drifting, slowly drifting away Lay down the anchor, Abandon ship and start again All hearts will grow as time moves forward Never will it be too late; Ignite change Find purpose rather than fill a void No longer endlessly searching Go ahead and dig the knife down my back Can't believe you still had the nerve... You say you're sorry but it's hard to believe that's true So sick and tired of everything you put me through Karma will bind you The time has come to separate those Those who once stood by my side From those who hide, in false friendship No longer wasting my time searching for those who never cared So far from where I want to be Losing sight of my reality I'm Slowly drifting, slowly drifting away Lay down the anchor Abandon ship and start again Ignite change We will rebuild today Ill revive this day Until they hear the truth I'll Tear this sleeve to keep my youth Keep fighting on Until they hear the truth

02: Inside the collision Album: Revive The Phoenix Written by A Mirror's Embrace 3/31/13 I've been waiting, just waiting to start something I've never started before I've been waiting, just waiting to go somewhere Still reaching out for the shore Slowly becoming worlds apart Darkness upon this love Once again, up all night, no sleep For this nightmare, we're reliving, Our worlds collide, inside the collision We search for the answers Our worlds combine, Our hearts collide, inside the collision And as time goes on we divide We divide... Go ahead and build your walls Cause in the end you will only confine yourself Go ahead and build your walls Cause in the end you will fight all alone You'll fight all alone Our worlds collide, inside the collision We search for the answers Our worlds combine, Our hearts collide, inside the collision And as time goes on we divide So why do we collide? Is there meaning behind all this destruction? Are we hopeless to coexist? Are we hopeless? Hopeless... With my walls closing in faster than before It seems I still find a way out Even when my walls are closing in on me Cast away your doubt Even when your walls are closing in on you I'm closing in, faster than before There is always a way out Our worlds collide, inside the collision We search for the answers Our hearts collide! And as time goes on we divide Lyrics by Manny Figueroa & Ron McCloud

03: For Those Who Speak TheTruth Album: Revive The Phoenix Written by A Mirror's Embrace 3/1/12 Keep it to yourself. I can't stand the site of you. But you're the only one I dream of... When will you learn that your ego sets you apart from the person you really are? I won't take the fall this time... After all is said and done, You will never become one Cause' you'll never understand That you will never be perfect There is hope for those who speak the truth Broken hearts become bullet proof You're so caught up in yourself that you will never comprehend the idea, that you will never be perfect You tell me you know what it's like to stand in my shoes, Lie straight to my face, You think everything’s alright Keep it to yourself. I can't stand the site of you. But you're the only one I dream of... When will you learn that your ego sets you apart from the person you really are? What I hate most is how you made yourself the victim, When I'm the one who took the fall for you All is said and done, You will never become one Cause' you'll never understand That you will never be perfect There is hope for those who speak the truth broken hearts become bullet proof Believe me when I say; Broken hearts become bulletproof Lyrics by Cody Ouellette & Manny Figueroa

04: We Are Not Forever Lost (Follow Me Home) Album: Revive The Phoenix Locked away; with my back against the wall We will be home soon, my friend Look through my eyes I hope you see through my disguise Cause I'm suffocating been waiting for you to finally see, the truth Time to rebuild what I once burned down It's been too long Lost in sands of time I will never know the truth it's alright tonight, tonight you'll never see the light And I will finally understand Locked away, My back against the wall all I've got left is aggression and I'm running out of time Is there a part of you still there? Without you... I despise everyday that I'm here It's been too long Lost in sands of time I will never know the truth It’s alright, tonight, tonight you'll never see the light And I will finally understand We are not forever lost This soul is right at home My friend, we will be there soon Tonight, tonight You'll never see light I will finally understand Follow me, follow me home Lyrics by Manny Figueroa

05: Behind Hospitality Album: Revive The Phoenix So sick and tired of breaking my back For a purpose that is not my own So worn out from fighting battles that are not for my own cause I only fight for my home So worn out from building someone else's dream Still second guessing myself in this life: my only One chance, one fight, And I've been wasting away Day in and day out Im Slowly losing pieces of myself As every hour, every minute goes by Your "hospitality" is killing me Don't ever feel looked down upon Cause you are more than just a number, Never back down from this disease You're worth more than you know refuse to conform to their demands Signal your defiance Lyrics by Manny Figueroa

06: The Parting Of Ways (Rose) Album: Revive The Phoenix Written by A Mirrors Embrace 3/6/13 Lights above the sky seem so close Seem so close... Illuminate our path this night, For we can only hope, we can only hope She will deliver us, To our destination You wouldn't believe these things I've seen; Like foreign planets and galaxies I've ended wars with a single word And risked my life just to be by your side No obstacle/ Will overcome/ space or time/ To finally see my blossoming Rose Would mean the end of everything But she found her way back to me Just to prove that she could Spreading words through time and space, We exterminate/disintegrate the tyrant Return her home The past is where she refuses to stay She found her way back to me Just to prove that she could Lyrics by Kevin Mokoski & Manny Figueroa

07: Through The Mask Album: Revive The Phoenix Written by A Mirror's Embrace 3/3/13 I will look to the sky, no longer searching for you Losing sight of who I was before False remedy kicks in, my hopes fall to the floor I wanna be who I used to be When you're in my life, it gives me every push I need to fall back from the edge Take me back to the days I was fine without this addiction Through a mask you hide Hoping to cover everything you hate on the inside Truth shines through Everyone sees the real you The beast is ugly within Everything I've worked for was withered away Gave it all, now I'm never giving in My will to fight is here to stay Disguise yourself in beauty the beast remains ugly within Time to become who I used to be never again / transform me looking up to the sky Hope stands by Through a mask you hide Hoping to cover everything you hate on the inside Truth shines through Everyone sees the real you The beast is ugly within Lyrics by Manny Figueroa

08: The Consequence Of Karma Album: Revive The Phoenix Written by A Mirrors Embrace 2/17/13 You will not be the death of me Never again For I struggle for a greater cause Never will you ever be worthy of any slightest envy You're just as naive as everyone Your temporary relief was to turn your back on me, I serenade in laughter while you grin over a war you think you won It wont be long until you realize You Are the fool I expected you to be, giving in so easily A thief disguised in loyalty Like the coward I expected you to be: Hiding in the dark This is the price you pay Won't be long until you realize you are the one who is expendable Made you're mistake Should've known you were fake be careful for what you wish for And for those you choose to push away The truth comes out to everyone Like the fool I expected you to be, giving in so easily A thief disguised in loyalty Like the coward I expected you to be: Hiding in the dark This is the price you pay I'm not wasting my time planning the worst for you the worst will come your way without me Karma is A symphony, of your, misery Killing you slowly; This is the price you pay The consequence of karma Never take my friendship and trust as a weakness This is the price you pay The consequence of karma Now you've become, you've become; a fake, your weak, cowardly, and worthless Keep turning your back on everyone No one will miss you / you're dead Lyrics by Manny Figueroa

09: Weekend Warriors Album: Revive The Phoenix Written by A Mirrors Embrace 8/3/13 Some people don't even try Some people will never return Will never return... Others have tried to escape into the sky While others just sit for life and die, Trying to live, trying to live This place is populated with lies; Ill expose mine if you tell me yours first, I won't die, I will choose to fight I will arise Then escape into the sky... We won't lie, can you see into our eyes? Can you feel our strength? This nation of captives; will arise... No matter what they say It's our world, against theirs As our words prevail No matter what the day; We've shown them what we've become and now they're afraid... We will all face the same God treated like dogs, we pray We pray to hopefully one day be free.... I won't die, I will choose to fight I will arise Then escape into the sky... I won't lie, please look into my eyes, Can you feel my strength? This nation of captives; will arise... We are weekend warriors A company of misery An ongoing mystery of revolution, Intertwined by our ancestry Broken down visionaries No matter what they say It's our world against theirs As our words prevail No matter what the day; We've shown them what we've become and now they're afraid... We will face the darkness We fight on as the lights go out When the sun sets, we will break through these walls, As we arise they will fall... It's alright, let go, just leave this place behind... Forever we exist within an endless fight... Lyrics by Ron & Manny Figueroa

10: Conviction Album: Revive The Phoenix Written by A Mirror's Embrace 11/12/13 Dis-faced, displaced From a ruined nation Can't exist, can't coexist Only thing I can look forward to is life after this... Only thing I can look forward to is life after this... Everyone's been down that road; To a place that was meant for all of us A hero, a patriot, and a new horizon brought forward One by one you're killing everything like a heartless genocide One more sign of conflict-ion, Obliteration, a ruined nation We will do the time but the time will not stop my redemption We will never escape, we will never escape this place That was meant for all of us Distaste, dis-erased From a perfect perdition We will create, we will liberate A new conviction One more sign of conflict-ion, Obliteration, a ruined nation We will do the time but the time will not stop my redemption We will never escape, we will never escape this place That was meant for all of us Dis-faced, displaced From a ruined nation Can't exist, can't coexist Only thing I can look forward to is life after this...

11: A Place Apart Album: Revive The Phoenix Written by A Mirrors Embrace 9/29/13 A place apart, the remains of treachery Go straight to the heart, take revenge on everything Take one last stand, Take my hand, Ill show you your virtues and fantasies We prey upon the winds, to separate them We make believe they don't exist To captivate, and isolate To achieve a perfect rendition We're gonna fall away, to a place we call our own We're gonna call on the grave, to erase us from this world A place apart, I still walk with the remaining brave Through the dark We strike hearts; this is a test of my infinite abilities For idle hands, lost in the sands, I'll reach in and set you free... We pray for the sins, for desolate winds To make them believe, make them believe That we can finally avenge To capture their hands, and rapture the lands, To take an oath and rise again Take an oath and rise once again We're gonna fall away, to a place we call our own We're gonna call on the grave, to erase us from this world A place apart Erasing hearts Defacing love They all fall away... We're gonna fall away, to a place we call our own We're gonna call on the grave, To erase us from this world Erase us from this world Lyrics by Ron McCloud & Manny Figueroa

12: An Invisible Pandora Album: Revive The Phoenix Written by A Mirrors Embrace 10/17/13 Here come the signs of the end of our age. these words still prevail I still prevail Scars remain, I am not ashamed Here come the signs of the end of our age This abomination, this desolation As we close our eyes to escape this exiled place, we are sworn We are sworn to obey a greater name As my fate remains… These words still prevail, My mind will set sail My visions will not fade These visions will not fade The breaking of our hearts is what once made us human So I've buried mine We've sailed from here to there We've finally become aware We are alive Invisible visions, from a broken existence We hear you calling our names Two separate divisions, from a new resistance The invisible order An invisible Pandora My mind becomes indestructible Invisible visions, from a broken existence We hear you calling our names Two separate divisions, from a new resistance Defeated ghosts at the shore I've finally opened the door No longer frail, crawl from the dust Until the end Until the end This life is no longer pretend Fight with me until the end My maker, defender, redeemer and friend Lyrics by Ron McCloud & Manny Figueroa
