Dragons hide in wide open spaces 
Breathing fire through a smiling face 
When the smoke has cleared 
Turn and face the fate you feared and 

(Chorus) 
Rise, ashes still in your eyes 
You laugh or you cry, whatever gets you by 
Like the Phoenix, fly 

Your heart burned in the desert wind 
It blew your mind and your innocence 
Go and curse the sun 
Or become the stronger one 

(Chorus) 

There once lived a girl 
Who could not close her eyes at night 
Fearing darker worlds 
She slept days only dreamin' of light 

In the dark, cries a tear for wings 
Like the lark, in her cage, she sings 
Turn the world upside down 
'Til the hope you lost is found and 

(Chorus x2)
