In the darkness, lies so deep a spark of burning crimson fire And flame which now do sweep upon the feathers of the bird We all do long to keep, to hear its wondrous cry So sweet and pure we weep, we watch it burn away Born of fire, born of pain See the birth of the phoenix aflame Born of fire, and of flame Spread her wings she's a phoenix again She is come from the ashes Conflagration rise To burn up the sky Flying oh so high Calling out in true passion Molten beauty streams Made from stuff of dreams Born of fire, born of pain See the birth of the phoenix aflame Born of fire, and of flame Spread her wings she's a phoenix again A red gleam in the darkness Crimson feathers fall Hearing the call We listen one and all You will journey through madness Searching through the lies With your burning eyes Scorching fire! Flames that burn the shell of falsehood Reveal beauty, hidden in the depths of all our souls Born of fire, born of pain See the birth of the phoenix aflame Born of fire, and of flame Spread her wings she's a phoenix again She is come from the ashes Conflagration rise To burn up the sky Flying oh so high Calling out in true passion Molten beauty streams Made from stuff of dreams Phoenix aflame!
