fire burns and the Phoenix dies
and rises from the flames
but will the love we had return
guns and flames, and the devil's mind games
we run away from reality but find that these choices
made are who we really are
i'm the an angel with a shotgun
I am educated, but not the way you would want to see
I'm the boy next door they turned into a killer of other men
but you all look away in shame
when we walk by your eyes tell all that needs to be known you sent me away to be taught the many ways to kill but now I'm a civilian
and your afraid of what I can do
fire burns and the Phoenix dies
and rises from the flames
but will the love we had return
